It would have been somewhat difficult to fit 4 people and all of our stuff in anything much smaller. The Yaris has always been a good size for even long trips that are 'just me' trips.

Yes larger vehicles do have their place and I don't have anything against them per se. The thing that I don't get is all the people around here that drive F250 or F350 dulys, huge Rams and Chevys and 99% of the time its just the driver in them. Most look like they never see the off road or even haul anything. Cowboy Cadillacs my brother calls them lol.

Same thing around Houston, except a slightly higher percentage are probably used to haul things.
