I counted cars at a stop light and everything was a crossover, SUV, or pickup truck. Closest thing to a sedan was a Corolla, which is now a hatchback!

    I think that’s likely; I am American and what I think of when I think “car” is basically the Ford Taurus. It was hugely popular when I first got to car-driving age, and I think it sort of became the reference for “basic car” for a generation. Not sure how well that generalizes to the under 40 crowd.

      I’m nearing 30. The Civic is more or less the “standard car” that comes to mind nowadays (not like a brand new one, maybe somewhere in the mid-late 2000s?)
