I never had a love affair with any car. A vehicle is a tool just like a hammer or screwdriver. I have a truck to pull trailers and haul stuff, and a car for basic transport from point A to B.

I used to live in Houston which this article talks about. You do need a vehicle, Houston is a huge city and the public transportation system is lacking. The light rail line wasn't put where commuters could use it most, it was put in the dumbest place anyone could imagine. They need rail from The Woodlands, Katy, Sugarland, Pasedena to downtown for it to make any sense. Instead, they just keep adding lanes to the freeways.
