The trouble in this conversation is that I suspect we both consider each other to be exceptions to a rule. From my perspective, I'd say you're either one of the classifications of people I've identified to enjoy driving, or you're one of the minority that just actually like casual driving. And on the other side, you're going to think I'm the exception to your rule where most people apparently like being out on the road. From my subjective experience, driving appears to be an experience that induces some amount of stress that one would prefer to avoid if at all possible. For example, I don't know anybody that's psyched when they forget to pick something up on their last grocery trip and relish the chance to drive back to the shop for it. When remote work was beginning to take off, most people I knew fortunate enough to have that kind of job were just excited to not have to drive in to work every day. I could go on, but suffice it to say, people don't seem to enjoy to drive anywhere, from what I have observed. The destination is usually the thing to be excited by, as in: being finished with the drive there. And from what I have observed, this generalization has been mostly true in the suburbs and even in small towns.
