Verified by Experts

(i) Yes we agree with Rahul. In long distance travel, comfort, convenience and safety are more important. God forbid, if a collision wee to occu, the damage done to a light vehicle is far more than the damage done to a heavier vehicle. The heavier vehicles have often more safety features like air bags, shoulder straps, etc.
