I haven’t owned a vehicle since 2013 but I drive rental and fleet vehicles 20,000 miles a year, mostly for work. At the end of the year that will end and I’m already resenting having to choose and maintain my own vehicle. It’s a burden that I don’t want to spend my energy on.

See, I consider myself a gearhead for sure, but I'd basically never drive again if there was good bike infra and mass transit. I resent HAVING to own one, but I love my minivan

I just went through buying a car, and this would have helped so much. Every review, even Consumer Reports weighs things like “fun to drive,” but driving itself is a stressful chore, and I cannot tell a difference in “fun” between any car I’ve ever owned.

I used to love them and now resent them, can I apply? I think the perspective would be funny at least.

Tangentially, a favorite aspect of THE ICE PIRATES for me is that they treated robots like lousy used cars, and they had to struggle to make them work right. A huge fresh breath after all the cutesypoo bots (I'm lookin at you BLACK HOLE). This future was wondrous, but not paradisical.

I would read the f*ck out of that. We have an old reliable Toyota hybrid with many many miles on it. I don't want to ever have to buy another. If I have to, I just want it to be comfortable & I'd pay extra if it'd safely drive itself so I can play video games/ sleep in the backseat during the trip.

I could do some really helpful reviews. I’m so good when Dodge asked for my thoughts on my new truck ten years ago they never responded!

I'd be so good at this! I am technically our car's owner, only bc I have the best credit score of the three of us, but am responsible for about 5% of the miles

I kind of got that vibe from Tom Magliozzi on Car Talk, back in the day. He may not have resented cars, exactly, but he didn't think they should ever go fast or cost more than a couple hundred bucks.

I hate cars, & like my Smart car. It’s like the least car car. It’s almost just a golf cart, but does the minimum car things. Since it’s cute & small & barely a car people are nice to it & let in into traffic, since its not like letting a real grownup car get in front of them. Would barely car again

JustBuyTheToyota dot com. Mention different aspects of a car then say "But you don't care about that" or "But the Toyota does that for less money." End the article with "Just buy a Toyota [appropriate vehicle class]." Everything about a Toyota is for people that just want reliable transportation.
