    Don’t assume everyone replying in a way you don’t agree with lives in the US. I am speaking from experience living in the Luxembourg/Germany area…

    Even Germans take vacation to visit relatives and vacation homes. A range like that easily doubles a 200Km drive’s travel time.

    It’s good if you don’t long-distance travel by car, or if you use it as a secondary car for work commutes. Then it’s perfect.

      Hilarious.If there was any European who is closest to the American car ethos, it’s got to be the Germans. Those autobahns, man. :)

      I knew that this argument would be the second possibility. German Reichweitenangst is strong with you, too it seems.
