I heartily endorse those sentiments. Having traveled the world (and crossed into Canada once by mistake) I can tell you that the country with the best infrastructure is the country with the best economy.
No point having roads if you're not going to use them and when you have the best roads, why, it's natural to want to drive the best on them.
No point having a car that you have to squash into to an extent where the blood to your extremities stops, and who knows when you might be called upon to transport 3 chemical toilets, a dead moose or tow a woodchipper up a mountain?
Space - that's what people want - God gave space to America, God gave America large houses, large cars, large everything.
These snivelling, piss-ant foreign, so-called automobiles, 10 foot long, powerless and with their 65 mpg might be OK for 600 Million Eurofags stuck on a continent the size of Rhode Island but that is taking things to extremes - which is perhaps un-American. America demands the grunting power that only a 437 Cubic Inch piece of Detroit iron can spit out and realises that 25mpg is about as far as you can go without being seen as a homer.
If technology like that was good enough for my grandfather, it's good enough for me!
