As one of these millennials that moved to a city and sold their car, I think it's for the best. I still love cars for their technical aspects and engineering, but car companies have lost me. I agree with everything you said. Cars suck now, and car companies suck. The more I learn about cars, and how we've been pigeon-holed into depending on them, and the cost they put on society (dollars, climate, social interaction, etc), the more I despise them. I feel betrayed. We went all in on cars for so long, and for what cost? They've nearly monopolized personal transport in North America, and culturally stigmatized the options that once were. I could list all the negatives, but I've seen them discussed on here many times. I learned a lot about cars growing up, and was once fully involved with car culture. But now my relationship with them is more parasitic. Cars kill, cars make people poor, and they negatively impact our social interactions. I don't think millennials, Gen Z, or any other future generations should worship the car like generations past. The amount of harm is not worth it. They should understand transportation, but certainly do so with an open mind while learning about alternatives to cars.
