I just don't understand how can people enjoy driving this boat. You see nothing, parking is a nightmare and what benefits do you get?

    Out of town they're pretty nice to drive to be fair. Wide and long wheelbase = great on highway, tons of clearance = shouldn't be too worried about getting gravel dings on a dirt road compared to a low car.

    But of course most of them are driven around town mostly, where there's literally no benefit to the size unless you're trying to score a gouranga. You don't get the seating capacity of a large SUV and unlike a van your back's open so good luck storing anything there without getting it stolen when parked unless you get a cover for the bed, in which case why didn't you just get an SUV that lets you switch between extra seats and cargo space?

    On the plus side, you never see them in places with difficult parking.

    in placea with actually difficult parking, no

    but you do see them blocking shit nearby. and making places perfectly normal but slightly tight parking absolutely terrible to navigate through because they jammed a boat into the small parking lot and blocked half the lane

    How's the visibility? Have you driven a normal car before? I enjoy driving but I actually like seeing the road and most contemporary pick up trucks are so bad regarding this.

    I have to other cars, a 05 Camry and 08 edge, so I do have other cars. To answer your question visibility is amazing. 360 view cameras, I can see it all

    These cameras are all on while you're driving? So you could see a child if they were close to the front of your truck?
