As someone who occasionally drives a bmw, I agree.
When I have to drive somewhere, because there's no inter-city passenger rail where I live, I want to do it as comfortably as possible, and bmw is one good option for this(unfortunately I can't afford a Rolls and/or a chauffeur 😞)
Man I really like the idea of this sub but these memes are just deranged ramblings half the time
why are you here?
We can have better social media.
The bmw should be one of the ugly ass suv ones not the more normal sports car. Those are even a bit fun to drive and US carbrains dont like to have fun.
That's hilarious, I legit picture people who unironically say "car-brain" like that:
Love the comm though, we need better infrastructure
Spot on! In Europe, I parked the car and walked around. In the damn USA, I park the car, do my shopping and then drive 500 m to next store. WTF is wrong with me!!!
i think european malls/commercial areas are way less likely to be that horseshoe shape, it's almost always some rectangular-ish shape with shared corridors and parking around it, whereas the horseshoe kind where you have to cross the parking lot to get to the shops on the other side seems pretty normal in the US.
It's not you, it's the way the USA have decided to build their country
Driving is fun, but it also shouldn't be the default mode of transportation. Society and infrastructure should not be designed around the expectation/requirement of driving a personal vehicle to get there.
slowly driving through the countryside, or racing on a course, are fun
driving the same route day in and day out at high speeds should be left to bus and light rail drivers
I also find cruising on the highway with other safe drivers enjoyable, but maybe that just makes me car brained :D
Cars feel fine anywhere but a city. There they induce so much danger anger and waste.
Yes, driving a car is fun. I didn't say commuting was fun.
Dude, granny with the bat while still sitting in the car, she gonna fuck up someone's mailbox for sure.
