lol why would anyone want to transport their car into the middle of Manhattan?

  So they can conveniently leave Manhattan and return or vice versa using their car without much hassle. People might begin storing vehicles in buildings more often in places like Manhattan if any of this stuff works. You then leave Manhattan with your car by linking into the transport tunnels, driving wherever you please from there. It wouldn't be difficult to add floors to new buildings just for automated vehicle storage, with a tunnel linked right to a given building that has vehicle storage. If I'm from Pennsylvania and I want to go to Manhattan for a weekend, I put my car on a sled, go into Manhattan via tunnel, park my sled/car in building storage linked to a tunnel, then do whatever in Manhattan. Then reverse the process for leaving. Dramatically more convenient than the way things are now. Maybe it ends up making more sense to have the bulk of vehicle storage just outside of expensive real-estate zones, so the sleds into Manhattan are multi-person carriers instead. Then you take a multi-person carrier sled back to wherever you stored your vehicle. Either way.
