Yeah it seems like "If you don't want to wreck your car, then just don't drive it"... The more I look into it, it becomes a system to where, don't enjoy life, because when life lets you down, you will "suffer" or be dissapointed... However, this is my view as someone that is very new to the Buddhist view, and I will continue to study it, not as a Buddhist, but as a student...
True happiness is that which arises without cause in this world.

Happiness connected to a Car is still flawed even if it is a thunderbird. . Joy arising from understanding the nature of the world by direct insight can not be dispersed as easily as the joy of a Car when wrecked.

In other words it is not about not driving the car. It is about being happy nomatter if you drive a car or not.
