Actually I expect future cars to be levitated in some manner. This can be done now with air cushion vehicles and later could be done with new technologies. Why waste money on highway paving if the wear can be virtually eliminated and travel can be over other surfaces? I suspect that various sizes will be available for various purposes. I want one of the high performance sporty ones!

Like the first computers back in the 50's(?) to now, which can fit in the palm of your hand. And so goes for the size and/or functonality of a modern day human being and/or all the data that makes one of us us. Undoubtedly in the far distant future an entire population/civilization could fit into something the size of a Basketball, and from there things will just get smaller & smaller until an all new extremely efficient standard or mode of living will be developed. << So I was wondering, and have been a while, what the future trend will be in car sizes. I honestly don't know the answer myself. >> </HTML>
