    Nah, the id/ego/superego thing was made up by Freud. Freud was a late 19th century crackhead who thought that everyone was in love with one of their parents. We do not listen to Freud. We do not trust Freud.

      It can still be a useful model for understanding how we behave, sometimes.

      He may have been a coke fiend with some wonky ideas, but sometimes, some of them can still be useful.

      If nothing else, the idea of how ego plays a part here makes sense, and how we probably think of the car as an extension of our body.
