It barely fits in the bloody car park. So bad for pedestrians and the environment.

I think I can understand that, it's just that some people just get the biggest car they can find only as a status symbol and think of nothing else about it, then when they get an inconvenience they don't even think that it's the cost of having that design. Not to mention the environmental impacts. But if I were in your situation, I certainly don't want to feel cramped in a car, especially if it's in America where you'll be driving fora significant portion of your day. I mean your car could be inefficient, but it's probably because efficiency wasn't accessible for you in the first place.
