Personally I also hate it because cars are effectively privatization of transportation costs. The government doesn't have to pay for your car repairs (which are inevitable given how much people have to drive), you get to pull yourself up with your bootstraps and pay for it yourself. And people wonder why this country is going to shit when there is no real support to even get people to jobs with the infrastructure we have.
Cars aren't even really just privatization in the sense that the cost is offloaded onto the invidual instead of the state, you just both pay your private car and also for the roads, which barring things like sea-connecting canals are about the most expensive infrastructure there is. Regardless of the mode of production the entire concept just doesn't work out on economics, like, at all.
