Correct. We are wasting most of our fuel, getting noting in return but "feeling powerful" or whatever it is people get off on. Our vehicles are a conveyance intended to transport us to a destination. We can't afford to treat them as playthings, because there is no metaphorical mommy and daddy to keep buying batteries for us. We're dealing with a finite amount of resources, but we aren't treating it as such.
