I took this awhile ago and thought maybe someone would be amused by it. I miss that car.

I think, especially in remote areas of Canada, the standard family car would not be sufficient.

and whats the percentage of people living in remote canada in comparison to the total population?

To me, a Jamaican, anywhere with snow or ice.

Maybe not a Civic or Altima but I’ve seen many a Subaru go to places that a “standard family car” wouldn’t be sufficient. Without needing to be an oversized.

Hell old jeeps are a fraction of today’s trucks and SUVs in size and could go deeper into rural territories.
