Oh, don't get me wrong -- the world went car-crazy in the 1950s and that's reversing. We may get back to the personal-vehicle-ownership rates of the 1890s. However, personally owned vehicles are certainly not becoming obsolete. In rural areas, no credible alternative to personally owned vehicles has EVER been proposed. Rural areas will continue to exist.
People talking about "transportation as a service" as if it's going to take over everything and replace personal vehicles have, uniformly, never lived in a rural area. It's an eyerollingly dumb idea for someone living on a farm. The logistics and economics of it don't work.
(In the old old days, your personal vehicle doubled as a work vehicle, and was called a "horse")
