I'm Sick of Car Companies Not Giving Me What I Want

Every day I watch TV. Every day I watch car commercials promote the fabulous new features on current models. Features like a rear view cameras to prevent accidents while going in reverse. My suggestion would be, learn how to become a better driver. Features like rain sensing wipers for the days I go blind behind the wheel. Or cars that self park because I have become too lazy to do anything even park or find a valet.

I am Sick of Car Companies Not Giving Me What I Want.

I do not need heated seats or an 8 speed transmission. I do not need television screens on the back of head rests or auto dimming rear view mirrors.

I want my car to be safe and I want have SUPER FANTASTIC AWESOME GAS MILEAGE. I could care less for good gas mileage. It's the end of 2009 and 30-34 miles to the gallon doesn't cut it. Technology is dazzling and can do tremendous things, so i find it unfortunate and unbelievable that car companies have not been able to come up with a car that has better than good gas mileage.

What do I want? I want a car that gets a 100 miles per gallon. Invent a car with 100 miles per gallon and I promise you people will line up to buy it. Sell me a car that gets 100 miles per gallon and with a 13 gallon tank and I can drive from Cleveland to Miami, New York City to New Orleans or Seattle to Los Angeles on 1 fill up. If it is that easy for long road trips think how much easier your daily commutes to work will be. How nice would it be to to stop by the local pump once month or so?

Build me a car that can travel 100 miles per gallon and make it affordable to the masses and build it in the United States of America and then I will be excited. I don't know why Americans aren't going crazy and demanding for this fantasy to become a reality.

I cannot take another car commercial promoting something we don't need. Sure, luxury is nice but I would rather have a fuel efficient car over a smart car. I would rather have a fuel efficient car over a luxury car. I am smart enough and do not need my car to be smart for me. I don't make enough money for luxury and would love not spend hundreds of dollars a year on gasoline.

till then... Car companies... all of you... go fuck yourself.
