"We're going to sell you a smaller, less comfortable moving livingroom made of steel with only radio for entertainment... and the whole thing burns gasoline!"

No, no. There was the tele-video conference calling. And they were playing chess or scrabble or something in the back seat. And it's gas now, but in the future it'll be atomic power or even zero-point energy!

And we'll preserve the scenic beauty of nature by creating monstrous road-building crawlers that'll PAVE THE EARTH!

I liked how everything had a fin. If they could have stuck a fin on the highway tubes or the passengers, they probably would have been thrilled!

Well, I for one am glad that none of that "decentralized our population into vast urban areas" thing never happened.

Heh. I must admit that it's great that even in the future that is our past, it's father who pushes some knobs (get its?) so get the family where their going. God forbid that the ladies work any knobs in front of the children.

Speaking of the future past. It's been freakin' 8 years since that alien ship crashed on Macross Island. WTF? Where my veritech figher at anyhow? (I may or may not have started acquiring that particular series on dvd. shut up! your mom's a zentrati!)

Also, it's pronounced ve-hick-U-lar.
Also, something kind of sexy about Disney narrator speaking of "pleasure vehicle".
Also, it's pronounced tub-U-lar.
And to top it all off, it seems that all our current "misunderstandings" there in the middle east are due to lack of underwater highways. Bastards.
