You're buying a bigger car because your knees hurt, which is pretty old.

Well for a few reasons. Bulk groceries (Sam's club / Costco), we use the van for that. Same thing when I need to purchase large items from hardware stores. Or even transport large items. But yeah, the way I get into my car, I have to bend my left knee in such a way that it sometimes produces a sharp pain in the inside of my knee. If I try to get into the driver seat like a woman, which is butt in first rather than right leg in first, I end up hitting the top/back part of my head on the top door frame.

If it was an integrity issue with my knee(s), I wouldn't be squatting 500lbs+.

All of that is a pretty boomer mentality, my dude. I can fit tons of stuff in my two small cars and if there's something huge I get it delivered or rent a truck.

Okay, I'm a boomer. A boomer that in hopefully a couple years (when the market gets back to normal) will finally own a truck <3
