Cars vs. Public Transit

[Vamp]

Munich public transit is good

Just googled it and honestly it seems like what the Civic should be.

It’s a smaller, downgraded Civic

@KGJT-9149

Weirdly, this compact city car is about the same size as my mid-size Subaru wagons that were designed in the 80s (yeah, they didn’t really like to make changes to their cars and the Legacy platform remained (mostly) unchanged from 1988 to 2009). It’s amazing to see how much bigger cars have gotten in the past 20 years.

True
They should have stayed small imo

L USA

[BonaireDude]

I’m pretty sure they didn’t do it in a way most Americans would like it to be…

[ThatOne9WPlen]

[ThatOne9WPlen]

yea

[BonaireDude]

You know what’s also great? Freedom and privacy…

[BonaireDude]

I bet the workers got paid fairly and the working conditions were excellent.

@BonaireDude

privacy…

you know compartment seating/sleepers exist right?

@BonaireDude

Freedom

Yea
Show up at a station and within 5 minutes theres a train that takes you to both the airport and to a larger main station from where you’ll get flights/trains to go anywhere you want

Still. Besides, most trains don’t have those.

That’s not freedom. Want to go take a detour? You can’t. Want to haul stuff and not worry about forgetting something on a bus or train and having to get on and off quickly? You can’t.

Also, if you suddenly decide to not want to anymore, you can just drive back, but I doubt a bus or train will just stop and go back.

Who said FSD was a good thing? Most people (such as my self) who actually enjoy the amazing creation that is the car tend to think that FSD is pretty dumb. Yeah, if you hate driving that much to where you want the car to drive you, just take a bus or something (or if you can afford a FSD car, just hire a driver).

Except there’s some people that you would think are complete mentalists who really enjoy driving.

Brody, I dare you to modify your Soo Ba Roo.

スバル moment.

@BonaireDude

You’re gonna have to be a little more specific than that seeing as I’ve got two of them.

[BonaireDude]

Either.

Do something that makes it even more fun, lol.

[ThatOne9WPlen]

looks like bro overdosed on his orange pills

what about the numerous people who can’t afford to travel that far

@BonaireDude

yea
almost every train here used to have them
now its only night trains that have them but still there are day trains with cabins

@BonaireDude

Also, if you suddenly decide to not want to anymore, you can just drive back, but I doubt a bus or train will just stop and go back.

get of the train/bus, go to the opposite side of platform/road and there will be one soon
also it only works when you have frequent service

get off and switch

also cars are good for leisure but not daily activities

Probably good advice for people who can afford it

[ThatOne9WPlen]
