Not being confrontational but one size does not fit all. The small and medium crossovers have a definite market, not all need a Tahoe/Yukon platform. It made more sense for us wanting a 4wd vehicle for winter mobility but without seating for seven passengers that we would vary rarely use to go to a midsize platform instead. We had to go outside of GM vehicles to do so as they no longer produced anything we wished to buy since 2009 and an AWD configuration did not appeal to us, we wanted a true 4wd vehicle.
I agree, if not for OPEC wanting to sink our alternate sources of petroleum and the subsequent market drop of the per barrel price of oil we would probably be at five bucks a gallon at present. And truthfully if I have to pay five bucks a gallon for gasoline I would rather pay it to a U.S. or Canadian producer than OPEC. Sorry, I lived through the gas lines of 73-74 and the 79 and the uncertainty of having a auto dealership job during the subsequent recessions while OPEC nations got rich. NO sympathy for greed.
