Sounds good when you read it, but horrible in reality.

It sounds even better when you read it properly. I never said they were only to be used for that, but that it's a waste not to use it for its true purpose at all.
Using your examples, a Civic and Corolla are generally A to B cars but also meant to have some fun and sportiness. An executive sedan generally ferries around execs but also has the balls to really move when you give it the beans. Any of those cars are also wasted by just puttering around pointlessly their entire lives, the same way a big truck is truly destroyed by only being used to ferry kids to soccer practice. An extreme example would be driving to the mall in a semi truck. That is destroying a vehicle because you've completely missed the point of it.
IMO if you're not using a vehicle to it's full potential at least occasionally you bought the wrong car.
