You are literally the only reason they should exist. One does not need such a car in suburbs or cities.

The older (until 2003 ish) Impreza can hold a whole ass washer/dryer/oven/dishwasher in the back no issue then they made it too round. I remember helping someone move and they had a stupid "truck" but could not get the bed cover off so me and my snoopy looking car moved all the appliances (3 trips) while the "truck" moved boxes and flat furniture.

Edit to add:

If you want to have a better chance at offroad with a subaru invest in a good skidplate and if really needed they have a higher clearance model. I have been places in them that the brodozers get stuck in seconds.

In cities it does. Here where I live there's being made a point of existing parking spaces being too narrow for modern cars. They are so much wider these days.

A four door jeep is very much a SUV, a two door jeep less so.

But it's not huge ass truck like vehicle. One is parked right next to mu European sized car and Jeep's smaller overall even if bit higher due to being offroad vehicle.

Edit: I mean small jeeps. Not their big variants.

I think point of critique of modern SUV usage is about their unnecessary big size and weight which leads to space wasting and higher fuel consumption which has its own negatives.

Depends on which model you're talking about.
