Case in point there is a new Housing Area they just built right Off-Post. The homes are similiar to our CYVs, and VERY upscale. They all have garages but none use them, when you look down that road, it just does not present itself as a classy upscale neighborhood. Also, look at your TV video, when they show Homes and street shots, all vehicles are off the driveways!
Your comparison of how people go to restaurants does not really fit, as I can choose not to go to a place like that if I do not want to!

That does it. I am definitely seeing that our car is parked in the garage from now on.

I don't care if I rip the fenders off.
