[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Life is too short and too uncertain to drive a car that doesn’t excite you or make you happy. Whatever you drive, whatever your taste, you owe it yourself to drive something you enjoy. You’re not getting another life when this one is over. So spend the time you have to spend behind the wheel driving something that makes you happy. If that’s a Prius, great. If it’s a Camry, good for you. If a Jeep Wrangler is your dream car, then get one. If you want to drive solo in a Suburban, do it. If you love Teslas, then drive what you love.

Just don’t suffer with some mundane car you don’t feel any passion for. Find something you care about. You’ll be dead one day, and dying with regret sucks. [/quote]

Reading your post makes me feel like I'm examining an alien species that is completely foreign to me. I cannot understand how somebody would care so deeply about a hunk of metal, or feel "passion" for their car.

I feel passion for my loved ones. I feel passion for my work. But I simply drive my car -- it doesn't occupy some special place in my heart, and I certainly won't be regretting my car choice when I'm laying on my death bed.

Why do you feel it’s necessary to insult me? I think that was uncalled for, and boorish of you. I didn’t attack you or anyone else. I just said “life is short, drive something you enjoy”. And for that you call me an alien? WTF is [i]wrong[/i] with you?

We (most people anyway) spend a lot of time in our cars. Driving is a major part of many people’s day, good or bad. Cars are something most Americans  relate to. For something that occupies a major part of your day and is typically the second most expensive item people buy in their lives (after housing) it’s not really an insignificant thing. It’s not too much to suggest that people should have a car they enjoy.

Yes, I have people in my life that I love. I don’t love a vehicle the same way. It’s an appliance for transportation. But given the amount of time we spend in those appliances it’s not unreasonable to want it to be something that makes you feel happy while you’re in it.

A normal person understands this intuitively. You don’t. I hope things get better for you.
