Electrophile Posted March 22, 2011 Share Posted March 22, 2011 How about the Interstate system. Yes, I know that the Germans had the autobahn first, but we as usual took it to a much grander scale. I really couldn't perceive trying to motor around without it. It was one of Eisenhower's greatest achievements as President. He made it possible for people in Seattle to get to someone in New York, without it taking a month. Also, with the country's push toward suburbia after WWII, there needed to be a way for people to commute from their jobs in the inner cities/downtown areas, to their homes outside that area. Not every city had the benefit of a great mass public transit system like Chicago and New York. Even then though, you parked at the city limits, and then took a train into the city. So you had to get from your home to that parking lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that was pretty awful. I hope he didn't think I was supposed to be awed by his ITG act. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really couldn't perceive trying to motor around without it. That's a good one. I've only actually used the I-5 but plan to use more of the Interstate system in the future. Great road system !
