    Is that what driving is about? For me driving is about that I don’t live in the supermarket and I need the shit they have in there.

        keeping the Saudi wealth faucet working.

        ha ha ha. When you go back to 1980, take some new jokes, K? :-P We have electric cars now.

          The irony of using the “{such-and-such era} called, they want their {thing from that era} back” stale joke format to criticize the staleness of my joke is palpable.

            Well, technically they didn’t mention that the 1980s called, so it’s a different, slightly less stale joke.

      Different people enjoy cars different ways. For many it’s just a tool to get from point A to point B. These are the majority, and tend to be a crowd who is now trending towards EVs and Self Driving Vehicles.

      For others, driving is about the experience of how the car meets the road and is much less about the destination. I just planned a 10 hour drive with a group of my car friends with no destination, we’re just doing it to get out on some fun roads with our cars. These type of people love our manual transmissions, ICE cars and the experience of driving and see the car as less of a tool and more of a hobby and something to bring groups together.

        Exactly. That’s why I didn’t define what driving is in general, but for me. And according to statistics, most people. Petrolheads and hobbyists are not a big enough market segment to make decisions on, apparently even for Ferrari and Lamborghini.

        I am also 100% on the EV hype, 3.5 years and counting. Super uncomplicated, silent and zoomy.
