But it is the same argument as why do I have a gas sucking 1500cc motorcycle, when I could ride a 100cc scooter, and get the same net effect.
I would rather live in a world with soccer dad of 1 Ford Super Duties and 2000cc boulevard cruisers, than one with a sea of Hyundai Accents and Honda Sprees. Because any world where Accents and Sprees are the dominant forms of transpiration, is not one in which I want live in.

So you basically don't like any place outside of North America? Because as far as I know, this is the only place where people drive them for non-commercial purposes.
