From the overwhelming size and number of cars on the road and the total

dependence on petroleum, to the layout of the nation's cities and suburbs which

forces Americans to drive everywhere, the American system of tansportation wastes

unnecessary resources. America could do better by finding ways to reduce the

number and size of cars on the roads and by lessening it's dependence on petroleum and

designing it's its suburbs and mass transportation around eachother and making overall

sacrifices for the good of its country and planet.

Americas automobiles are too big. The popularity of SUVs has skyrocketed this

past decade and so has their size. Nowdays there are numerous SUVs with

three rows of seating and huge motors to pull their huge weights. From the Ford

Excursion to the Hummer, SUVs are entirely too big. The monster of the road,

the Ford Excursion, is available with a ten cylinder engine. These beasts

of motors in SUVs would infact come in handy towing a trailer but when this beast is

used for light loads and a passenger hauling, then it is a waste of gas, space, and money.

Everyday, millions of Americans face congested roads to school,work, or the

of the gasoline internal combustion engine is soon to be over (Hamaleshka 120).
