      The year is 2050, Trump’s dessicated husk is dictator-for-life due to Elon Musk’s life extending technology.

      Vehicles have steadily gotten larger to meet supposed consumer demand. The smallest “compact” sedans require a 4 foot step ladder to enter.

      Bicycles are now at least 500 pounds of solid steel. The tires cost $250 each due to their enormous size and thickness.

      It is illegal to spend less than $1000 dollars on gas per month, and all homes are required to have a minimum of three garages.

        Imagine the gearing on a half tonne bicycle hahaha.

        I like to think in this future, vehicles have also become wide enough they take up multiple of our current lanes as to not tip over by being tall as a house.

        America's new best selling vehicle:

        Bonus, the compact car of next century:

        The infrastructure would be comical.

          I can’t go with the compact. What if I need to move?

            This type of anxiety seems to be exclusive to north America. I live in Canada and never think about that because when i live somewhere i plan to stay there for a very long time, but i have heard people around me say they have a truck because “what if i need to move?” I don’t hear that much from people in other parts of the world.

              Also, the answer is that you take all the money you saved on gas by driving a reasonable car and use it to rent a moving van for the day. You’ll still have money left over. Guarantee it.

                yes exactly. When your looking for a car, it should be the best mileage you can get with your budget. I used to bike alot, but i dont anymore as i gained alot of weight and i cant find a bike that supports it. Once i loose weight ill get back to biking, i enjoy it alot.

        a minimum of three garages.

        Which are filled with useless crap because because the vehicles are too large to fit in them.

        For more than a hundred centuries the Emperor of Mankind has sat immobile on the Golden Throne of Earth. He is the master of mankind by the will of the gods and master of a million worlds by the might of his inexhaustible armies. He is a rotting carcass writhing invisibly with power from the Dark Age of Technology. He is the Carrion Lord of the vast Imperium of Man for whom a thousand souls are sacrificed every day so that he may never truly die.
