Cars. What does the typical audiophile drive?

1. Daily driver-1991 Escort GT-gas mileage
2. Weekend car- Laser Red Mustang GT V8
3. Dream car-would have one built from scratch with plenty 1/4 mile acceleration.
4. Driving in the future- Same Mustang because im broke now!!!

my 17-year-old son was killed 5 years ago in a collision...After he died, I saw roads of this country swimming in blood. They will stay like that because until it happens to you, you are happy to be part of the conspiracy of silence. And after it has, you are one of the quietly suffering who do not have enough strenght left to try to change the world.

Data, unthinkingly I posted here too and must now sympathise with you. Thankyou for showing us the dark side of our seemingly innocent banterings. I feel for you and wish you strength and the power to forgive. Please accept my embrace across the oceans,

Data: You are so right. Here in the U.S. it's roughly the total American death count in Viet Nam, each year, right under our collective nose.

It's strange what our brain allows us to ignore (people think psychoacoustics is something) in order to partake in the everyday humdrum. Our romance with cars cannot survive much scrutiny.

You can see from my post above that one of my other great passions is cycling. It is a beautiful thing really.
I raced when I was younger. Fun, healthy, environmentally friendly. A man on a bicyle is the most effecient form of movement/transportation on the planet. And oh ya, the greatest threat is??.... Cars.

Take care and may you have strenght.

I remain,

Data....very very sorry to hear about your son.

Yesterday I was out for a 60 mile bike ride with a local club...like Clueless I too raced when I was younger (8 seasons) and find cycling to be a great passion. About 10 miles into the ride we rode up on an accident and I saw the yellow body bags...this is the second time I have seen this while riding. A man and his son-in-law were hit by a car on PCH (in Huntington Beach, CA). Apparently an accident (the guy was not drunk). The man was killed and his son-and -law is in critical condition with a broken back. Yes, the brain does allow us to ignore such tragedy until we actually are confronted with it.
