Except, no one really worries about drunk drivers driving into a tree. If that happens, I'd say its all good, servers them right... The real problem is drunk drivers running into other drivers, pedestrians, property, etc. And even back in the days of horses and carriages, when forced to go at full gallop the horses would not be able to prevent such mistakes.

A horse is a low tech version of KARR. Surely we want a KITT? | A horse is a low tech version of KARR. Surely we want a KITT? | ||

: Being sexist, under normal circumstances my wife would rather watch Golf on TV than stand around being regaled by a proud car owner, so I'm voting for car salesman. :) [[User:RoyT|RoyT]] ([[User talk:RoyT|talk]]) 07:03, 16 August 2016 (UTC) | : Being sexist, under normal circumstances my wife would rather watch Golf on TV than stand around being regaled by a proud car owner, so I'm voting for car salesman. :) [[User:RoyT|RoyT]] ([[User talk:RoyT|talk]]) 07:03, 16 August 2016 (UTC) | ||
::I'm not sure he is a sales man. Megan could be a horse girl thus interested in the horse aspect. Also it could just as well be the same car in the title text, why could a car not be represented with these two lines: ''This baby has 200 horses under the hood and 3.5 in the computer'' -- and it has -- ''240% of a horse's decision-making ability and produces only 30% as much poop''. No reason to assume it is two cars. I guess this depends highly on what you thought of the first time you saw the comic? But I can easily imagine both that he brags about his own car or that he tries to sell this one (and maybe that it's another in the title text). Too bad Randall has stopped making transcripts when he releases comics. They sometimes get up later, but recently they have been up for the wrong comic... I have fixed the transcript so it is not assuming it is his car. --[[User:Kynde|Kynde]] ([[User talk:Kynde|talk]]) 13:45, 16 August 2016 (UTC) | ::I'm not sure he is a sales man.

Not sure being very close to decomposing manure and urine is less toxic (or carcinogenic) than breathing our relatively dispersed modern car exhaust. Would be a very difficult thing to quantify. Might we change in some way "Of course the amount of pollution created by the cars of the world makes them much more toxic both for humans breathing the exhaust fumes and on the larger scale with the climate."? {{unsigned|Jubal Harshaw}} | Not sure being very close to decomposing manure and urine is less toxic (or carcinogenic) than breathing our relatively dispersed modern car exhaust.
