In 2o years maybe there wont be internal combustion cars at all. Green poltician will prevail fight with oil lobys. Also, we will not drive anymore, at least not in todays meaning of the word driving. Drivers will be distinguished 'cause of advance technology that suposse to make trafic safer.

Today we got tempomates, distance controls and tomorow we will have autopilots which corespond with trafic satelites and all we need to do is start the vehicle and choose destination. Gov and police will have all data on our daily comutments and all of that masked in ferytail about oure safety.

So, ma driving collegues, enjoy driving while it is still legal! Driving skills would be treaten like like old profesion - like blacksmiths or sadle makers. Here we got American fellows - how manny people you know in US that are able to drive manual shift? In 20 years not many people would be able to drive at all. First we forget how to brake after ABS came in, after we forget to drive trough curve after ESP came on, then we forget to drive steady after tempomats came in, then we forget.... You got it by now where I aim!

We are one of last generations who can learn that ancient skill called "Driving". If you look around you will find, and don't be surprised, that people do not want to drive . they just wonna status simbol or something that can bring them from point "A" to point "B".
We are last Mohicans!

Hok-ah-hey, my friends!

Hey! I only drive manual. Same with most of my friends.

Anyways.

I think in 10 years I'll have a turbocharged Corvette, and some form of fuel efficient car. In 20 years I'll have a collection. I'll still have the vette, but I'll have a turbo Viper as well. and an RS4. and a huyndai veloster turbo lol. And my Mustang, of course.

I won't own anything with less than 200whp, most will have over 400, and if the gov't wants to tell me it's not safe to drive, they had better disassemble every road there is, because they won't stop me!
