    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.

        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.
