I would love to see what a shit-show that would be here in the US. Those super-ginormous SUVs that are all the rage with soccer moms might as well have their fuel consumption measured in gallons-per-mile

You're young, huh. The 70s were a shitshow because of fuel rationing, among other things. There would be mile long lines to the gas station and, I'm told, since I only existed as other entities' atoms, you could only get maybe 2 or 3 gallons
