    Inconvenience is mild to say the least. If i had to commute by public transit or bike. it would increase my commute from 15mins to well over 3hrs on foot, 1hr on Bike 4hrs public transit with obnoxious transfers instead of just a nice easy loop or stop nearby, no , no. has to take multiple routes, change buses, stamp tickets…at that point, ill just get an oil change every so often. my cars are paid in full. Ownership means something. Convenience. My music, I don’t have to endure 30 other passengers going to work with misery on their faces to stare and smell at. I don’t have to worry about shameless vagrants harassing people on that commute. No sweat, I got AC…Cars are not going to be beat by public transit. The gap can close with better infrastructure but people, hate people. they want to be left alone and are free to do and go anywhere they choose with the modern day Horse.

      In some cities, e.g. Vienna, public transport already beats cars. For playing your own music I have some mid/low-range noise cancelling and can watch movies
