Falling out of the car would be very easy to do |

I think the Qashqai is a better more practical size/shape, the Juke is a bit small for an SUV Rosco not a fan 🤣🤣 |

Was it something Dad said.  |

Does she really need an SUV, or something approaching one?
If I was putting an serious money into transport right now, I'd be looking nearer to a car than a truck, as that's where the residuals are going to stick over the next few years; SUV's have had their day, and they will soon be on their way to the land of the rising smelter.

I gave up trying to read womans logical minds years ago.  |
