Wish it were still true.
Well there are always going to be exceptions to any situation. Yours and Ailkema's sound like exceptions to me. I live in a metropolitan area but I still have some seriously long distances to drive and our public transit just isn't up to par. Here in St. Louis, we're way behind Chicago when it comes to public transit. Our MetroLink train system is still relatively new and doesn't cover nearly enough area to be considered usable by everyone. We have busses, but they're nothing to write raves about.
I am just glad I have my 49cc Scooter for 50+ MPG for going to the stores, and a few medical appointments and such. It's not highway rated though so I still have to take my car to many places.
