what do yall drive?
/leftycars/
I had this until it was stolen and driven into a tree.

Nothing, im too poor to afford a car. I usually walk places or take a bus. The school i go to lets us rent out bikes for free and i sometimes bike to the store with a backback to get groceries.
I live in an European capital and rarely go out, so I'm quite content with public transportation.
Reminder that every developed country could enjoy state-of-the-art public transportation if it weren't for car manufacturing lobbyists burying it into the ground to make room for their wasteful, polluting traffic jams.
I'm a gigantic carfag but I really cannot justify buying a project car or anything vaguely sporty for now, so I live the boring life.
I shall never give up on my reactionary soul that wants to own 80s shitbox sportscars.
Holla Forums should be using public transportation, anything else is contradictory
Not a leftist
I drive an old F150
Government a shit, also there is no public transportation where I am.

tbh i'm openly reactionary on guns and cars, i fucking love them and i think that socially awkward nerds just have no relation to the concept of enjoying them so the concept of eradicating them entirely seems satisfying and logical despite the core flaws in these areas being from the consumerist elements forced into them because of capitalist rather than an inherent evil
You're openly retarded at understanding basic concepts, like leftism, and reactionaries.
cant afford a car so
at least that means I have like 80 cars on GTA
I'll admit I'm one of those faggots who hasn't read shit but at least from the perspective of someone who sees cars as fully unnecessary and outright harmful I think it would not be uncommon to describe my defense of them as reactionary, right? But if I'm wrong I'll fully accept that I'm just a faggot who needs to read more.

2017 Toyota Camry LE
I drive my dad's old car, it's 20 years old, and my dad is not a car person. never even changed the oil himself. it's falling apart (literally) and I'm looking for a new car. any prole reccomendations?
weak
Get a mid-2000s toyota corolla and treat it as well as you can, change fluids yourself if you feel like you could do it to save extra money. It's really boring but if you find one that's been taken care of well it'll last for a decade or two more.
I mean I guess if you're a primitivist you can call it reactionary because fuck technology but, still.

It's more than just there being more wide open space.
It has a lot to do with it's much harder capitalist consumerist economy and Cold War militarization.
There were relatively few roads in the United States and most long-distance travel was done by train up until the 1950s. After WW2, Einsenhower, having seen how agile and efficient the German Autobahn had made the Nazi war machine, sought to make an American equivalent in the Interstate Highway System.
Which is the primary point. Cars on tarmac roads have never been the most efficient form of mass and/or long distance transit. This was chosen primarily for its military application.
Second, this fit in neatly with the then-booming American automobile industry, making cars more practical than they ever were in era previous, coupled nicely with the consumer culture that was growing in the 1950s. Chevrolet pushed the idea of cars as status symbols among the middle class, and soon they were a fixture in American culture.
Just remember that cars didn't have the high status they now enjoy until around the 50s. its not something written in stone.
A 2015 impala. Bought it used and runs great, like it better than my work truck (2011 colorado) or my first car a 97 sierra.

People who aren't pro-gun aren't socialist.

real proletarian transportation
This is my wheels. A woman's bike from gumtree. Any urban dweller should be peddling unless they have no legs or are transporting goods
Why is it a woman's bike?
This is bullshit. They just aren't a militant socialist. Even then unless you are actually conducting militant activities you are simply a communist with a gun
Its an o-k bike that usually costs 300 but I got it for 40. Everything else at 40 was a hunk of shit, it has pretty aggressive frame geometry anyway cos its technically for light mountain use so its really not very much different at all
Driving is consumerist culture, I walk or bike instead. If it is good enough for North Korea, it is good enough for me.
why'd you want an extra higher pole on the bikes mid section that only limits you in how to get up and off the bike and serves no purpose?
Nah fam having the low slung mid section really throws off the centre of gravity at speed.
As you can see however, my rad wheels do not have this design flaw, and is therefore essentially a Super Male Vitality ride
that was to you
I drive this because its aircooled and dead simple to repair
bike or public transport
...
Very nice
Fucking capitalists they ruined everything again
Same. I drive a Golf MK3 Variant but secretly dream of a modestly souped up S2000
Honda Civic master race
Mercedes A-Class. Mines is slightly more Burgundy than the pic, but still good ol red. Not fast, but automatic so good for lazy driving. Fairly Fuel efficient, but couldn't switch to solely Public but i cross border and work in rural areas with lots of equipment sometimes. Also Translink in NI have declined since part privatization.
enjoy losing watts to frame flex pleb

There is possibly no more bourgeois a symbol than the motor car
two wheels is the prole vehicle of choice.
this is my car
I wish I lived in a country where bikes and mopeds were commonplace, it's too intimidating when everyone else is zooming around in massive obnoxious cars.
I've got a Citroen Xsara VTS
you have no idea how krauts drive nigga, id rather be a combat infantryman than ride a bike here
gay
also gay but at the same time extremely chill
Hey man, that Merc has been busted left and right and survived years of shitty roads, it might be gay and total piece of shit, but it does the damn job and it does it well! wouldn't trade it for anything. especially not a bike, fucking rains all the time in ireland. balls would get froze aff on the west coast.
tiocfadh ar la komrade, im not shitting on you man, just pointing out the obvious, im sure its a decent vee-hik-ul
I used to drive the gayest opel you can imagine we dubbed it the popemobile
its not the car but whos drivin it that matters in the end, you can be gangsta in a trabant if ye do it right
Fair enough. and to be honest like i was in crumlin in Dublin a few months ago and a bunch of spides (hoods for non irish) yelled a bunch of shit gay and threw a fuckin drink when i drove past em at like 4 in the morning. guess i gotta make peace with it XD
Acura RSX-S/DC5 Integra
sometimes wish it were a little smaller like the older Integras/CRX
I hope in the distant future we can just walk as we please. the whole logic of rushing and eliminating the element of time is what I disagree with. of course, bus, light rail, and cycling are ok
my dawg
