I like four-bangers, I like short shifters, I like si's, subarus, lancers, pop pop pop on the downshift, stomp click click vrooom.

Do I get stuck in traffic sometimes? Ehh, once a week maybe.

Would I give it all up for the betterment of humanity as a whole, and hang my childhood on the memory rack forever?

...yeah. The irony of that, though is that being American and living in the rural south gotta throw the glowies a bone every now and then It's barely even considerable, at all. There is no bus route. There is no train. There's no carpool, I work third with one other person who lives on the other side of the city.

So, if I have to drive, and my preferance is 32mpg little cars, and for now... I have to, and I enjoy it,...

then I'm gonna.

Making superior options for long distance travel, commuting, and random short-distance trips doesn't mean cars go away, it means the 98% of people who aren't into cars get off the road for the rest of us.

Depends on who you talk to. Seems the more rabid members of fuckcars want to ban cars completely, and jail anyone who resists lol
