Automated Cars Will Redefine "Home" – Driverless Cars (Part 4/6)

I was looking at Google Maps the other day and mistakenly asked for the driving directions from Massachusetts to Taos, New Mexico. Absurd! It would take four days, at least!<p>But not if your automated car can drive straight through: It would take a day and an half. Four fueling stops. That's enough not to need the loo built-in. With two passengers, the economics are compelling.<p>Airlines better figure out a way to reduce the overhead around air travel or they are toast.

Yeah, I don't think this will happen. Why is this different than current mobile homes? Why don't "20-something's and college students" widely adopt mobile homes? Because they're inefficient and you don't need to bring all of your stuff with you everywhere.<p>This won't change just by making mobile homes autonomous. It will still be cheaper to have a stationary home and a cheap car, autonomous or not.

This seems unlikely. Why would living out of your driver-less car be significantly different from living out of your regular car?
