<p>Brings back memories, Max. :-) I imagine quite a few of us dodged death and injury in our early, inexperienced driving days. I think those are experiences that younger generations can do without. The stakes are far too high. Still, I enjoyed your reminiscences.</p>

<p>Going for a "ride" is going to change. I think we'll accept the driverless cars in droves when we realize how much they'll free us from the task of driving. </p>
<p>Most drivers take for granted the operation of an automobile. One of the biggest things in life for young folks is to get under the wheel of their first car and hit the road solo. I remember my first car and the independence it provided. I was in control of a machine that could go fast when I wanted, cruise slow to look cool,…</p>

<p>Most drivers take for granted the operation of an automobile. One of the biggest things in life for young folks is to get under the wheel of their first car and hit the road solo. I remember my first car and the independence it provided. I was in control of a machine that could go fast when I wanted, cruise slow to look cool, and a rearview mirror to see where I've been. My first home didn't provide any of that...</p>
<p>My first time under the "wheel" didn't go as I expected. Our old farm truck (army tank) was tough, and I took out our mailbox on my first pass. My cousin, who was a year older than me, was teaching me how to drive and he had a hard time instructing me to turn the wheel only when you want to turn the vehicle. I got my big chance to show him how much I learned on that first driving lesson when we tried to pull in the driveway. We didn't make it, the truck went into the ditch and bounced into the yard. The engine stalled and saved us from hitting the house. From that day on, daddy took over all driving lessons. Children will not know the thrill of crashing their car and seeing their life flash before their eyes like we did. </p>
<p>I think the automobile will become more like commercial airplanes. Get in, take a seat, buckle up, and read your book, unless you're an old timer and think you can fly the plane.</p> Or, how about the vacation mo…tag:gohaynesvilleshale.com,2018-01-13:2117179:Comment:36618382018-01-13T17:14:44.836ZSkip Peel - Mineral Consultanthttps://gohaynesvilleshale.com/profile/ilandman
<p>Or, how about the vacation model? Roof top rack for skis or bikes or one of those streamlined roof top cargo carriers. The camping model could have seats that turn into beds and automatic window privacy shades. The possibilities are many. Or you could use it to get from A to B, just like the antiquated cars. :-)</p>

<p>Do you want the business model? Or the party model? The business model lacks the iTunes 24-speaker system and the built-in bar.</p>

<p>Hey Skip, I wonder if the front seats will spin 180 degrees so you can party with the back-seaters and have direct access to the beer cooler?</p>
