That's an amazing website; thanks for linking it. Apparently, lengthwise, my car easily fits between the wheels of a Ford F-150 without even touching them. My car's full height is substantially below where the F-150's windows begin. That car could probably drive over my car and barely even notice it.

Not so helpful; the cars are from two different generations at two different price points. Try https://www.carsized.com/en/cars/compare/bentley-flying-spur...

Because old and new cars never have to interact on the road?

You're calling out different price points while then choosing a $200k car. Which, you picked that car because it's an exceptionally long sedan.

How about we choose a different SUV?

I see far more suburbans on the road than all models of Bentley.

People aren't choosing SUVs because they're smaller than sedans. They're choosing them because they're bigger.
