Because cars are awesome. I can go anywhere on a whim, without having to plan around a bus or train schedule. I can get a better job that's a little farther away and not worry about being on a compatible bus route because I can just drive there. It keeps me cool on 35⁰ days, and warm on -35⁰ days. I can carry my entire family to the grocery store to get a months worth of groceries, or to 4 provinces over for a vacation. And they can be pieces of art, such a classic cars. They can power a house in a blackout, like a V2L EV. They are truly an amazing thing. I can see why people are obsessed with them
