In Sweden we have two lanes (sometimes three but very rare) in US there is like 4-6 lanes and the traffic is faster and traffic jams do happen. The traffic rythm is nothing compared to Sweden. In Sweden it is much slower so it was kinda chock to drive in the US for the first time.
I now understand why Americans love Automatic gearboxes and I can understand why they rather be driving an automatic than a manual.
And I must complain on the roads in US. They are just horrible. They arent smooth, its uneven and bumby.
I perfectly understand why people over there prefer a soft suspension instead of a stiff suspension. Owning a sportcar in US might not be an good idea as a everyday car.
Im very thankful to live in Sweden. Better roads and much smoother and in better shape. Here a car with sportsuspension isnt a problem. I wonder how it would be like driving my babybimmer in US, manual and M-sport suspension. Perhaps not as pleasent as in Sweden. |
