Why is the car such a status symbol in the USA? I was watching a documentary about custom cars on the west coast and it made me think. A basketball player gave an interview, when he was asked why is he spending so much money on customizying his car when his car is already extremely expensive. His answer was "If I spent so much money on this car, I don't want to see someone else have the same car."

So my question is? Isn't the point of a car to take you from point A to point B? Of course, it can be comfortable and whatever and it makes sense to customize it so that YOU would feel better, but not so that it would show off how much money you have. I know a lot of people who have really mean cars, but don't have anything to eat. Does them having an expensive car make them someone??

They were clean, quiet and didn't pollute. They could be used for emergencies such as Katrina. I know there is a few but people could do so much more. Is it the government? The petrol companies? The car makers? Even if there is a cost to produce electricity, who's watching out for the future and making the opportunities for us to have a choice to not pollute, save fuel, etc.

Are you as irritated as I am when you hear a new car or truck commercial in which they say "rated highest in INITIAL quality"?
That statement is absolutely meaningless! Initial quality?
In other words..."it's a great vehicle... until you drive it off the lot!"

You also must ignore claims that J.D. Powers or Car and Driver makes. These companies are in the back pockets of the manufacturers. I would only trust Consumer Reports. They do not accept advertising money.

It seems like I am going faster than my speedometer says now. Does it need to be calibrated to the new larger tires?

I am interested in engines that run off of fuel other than gas and diesel fuel. In 1972 it was on TV about an engine that was made out of pvc and I think its fuel source was water. If anyone knows about this please contact me but email.

I always liked the design of the Batmobile from the 1989 and 1992 movies. I know this is wishful thinking, but would it be possible to buy a replica of it? (Minus the make believe gadgets, and I imagine it would cost at least 1 million dollars).
