Yeah I call bullshit. People don’t want modern cars because they are low to the ground, smaller and harder for people to get into.
As a 6’2” dude every time I get into a rental car I smack my head and have to contort myself to get in and out. There is also never enough room for anything beyond a few suitcases. I always breathe a sigh of relief when I get back to my truck after a long business trip in a car.
Crossovers and trucks are popular because they have space and are easier to get out of. Full size cars from the 80s tend to be way bigger than full size cars from today. Once cars started shrinking and getting lower to meet EPA mileage requirements which is also the same period of time when people started abandoning cars for trucks and SUVs in the 90s.
A friend of mine was 6’7" and drove a hyundai elantra. Also has a condition that causes him severe fatigue and joint pain. He makes so much fun of little bitches like you, because the elantra easily and comfortably accommodates him so there’s no fucking way it doesn’t also accommodate you.
I guarantee you you’d fit comfortably in an elantra unless you’re well past the point of morbid obesity. Further, it’s incredibly obvious that the point of talking about his height is to show how you literally have no ground to stand on. Lastly, no, obviously we don’t go up to random people in trucks and start calling them losers. We do make fun of losers that don’t understand how to sit down in a car without banging their head. (I’ll give you a hint. Instead of standing facing the front of the vehicle, face your back to it and sit down in the seat.) Also, losers that complain about roominess in cars that have plenty and instead opt to put everybody else on the road in greater danger while also increasing the rate of the climate crisis.
Glad to hear you wouldn’t buy a hyundai. That’s incredibly irrelevant to the point.
Meh I’m 6’4" and don’t mind the small cars. In fact I prefer them when getting rentals. They’re easier to drive and park and cheaper to fuel up. I got an Escalade recently because it was the last car available and I hated it.
Modern sedans are so tall you barely even get “down” into them. And you can’t use the “its easier to get in” when you have to jump up into something like a Tahoe, or step up into something smaller like a Rav 4.
What reality do you live in that you think vehicles in the U.S. are getting smaller? Please compare a new Colorado or Maverick pickup to an S-10 or Ranger from the 90’s. Sales of fullsize cars have decreased over time (but that’s only because they have been replaced by trucks and SUVs).

So you and your friend regularly go up to random strangers who ride around in SUVs and trucks and call them bitches? Sounds needlessly aggressive.
No I wouldn’t fit comfortably in an Elantra. In fact I wouldn’t buy a Hyundai anything in the first place.

1.9% of americans are 6’2" or above
Shit I’m 6’1" and I drive a Miata.

Let me give you the TLDR summary. I made the point that trucks and SUVs became popular about the same time that full size cars got smaller in America.
No where did I state that trucks or SUVs got smaller.
You can’t tell me a 80s Chevy Caprice is the same size as a 23 Honda Accord or Nissan Maxima.
I’m 6’3" and fit into my small car no problem. And it’s got more space than my neighbor’s SUV because it’s a wagon.
Plus minivans are just as big, if not bigger, and have a high seating position, but aren’t popular.
