l You get taken serious by your fellow carbrained americans because ““trucks”” are normalized and small handy cars are ridiculed.
So unless you are a fragile piece of human, choose the right one.
Having a back seat is a legit feature. Other than that, you are right on. I would love to have a real small trucks available in the US. But thanks to Country Music that is just not possible.
Yeah can’t put a car seat in the front
You can legally put a front facing car seat in the front of there is no backseat. Rear facing you are SOL.
Aren’t switchable passenger airings still a thing? I know I saw them on Chevy 1500s 20 years ago.
My 2016 Subaru has automatic switching: I assume that’s common now. If the seat has less than 50 lbs, the airbag is off.
That being said, I wouldn’t trust it, since it seems a bit inconsistent, plus would worry car seats are too close in weight
