Robots!!!

building a car like a model t wouldnt be very difficult for those who operated complicated engines in vaults. i know about the real purposes of vaults, but some experiments werent deadly and people managed to exit them safely after a while. but even if nobody could make it out alive from the vaults, then ordinary people with some knowledge on engines and motors (it doesnt even have to be on cars) would be able to make some basic vehicles with all those engines around.

not all the people in the wastes are cannibals or holly people. there are lots of regular folks who havent lost their knowledge about technology. people would start repairing cars or making basic vehicles as soon as it is safe to go outside. people would want to move to some warmer or cooler regions. or they would want to search for more fertile lands, valleys, or they would want to get away from raiders or supermutants and would try the far north in hopes that virus wasn't effective in colder climates... you can find thousands of more reasons why people would need transportation. then the mechanics who lived before the war could pass their knowledge to the others.
about the guns which are beyond repair: in reality, it whould be easier to gain metal parts or junk from a mauser than raw iron ores. and gaining gunpowder from bullets and shells would also be easier than gaining some from raw minerals. but i like the game as it is now (not pvp very much) i just wanted to state out that seeing cars in the game is realistic for me.

Wooden car, I like that. I guess if the vehicles were more along those lines instead of "hummers and highwaymans", I could understand. But even then they woudn't be mass produced or cheap like they are in reality (wellnot cheap but theres such things as financing). The ways of mass production are long gone with even the BoS incapable of building cars or verti-birds (although future planning sounds nice).
That wooden car looks like its being pwoered by a some kind of generator? Probably not efficient like a real car but certainly could cruise to certain "travelable" areas.
Nyarla:
i agree with what you say about mass production and hummers. and yes, it would be hard to see a fully functioning cars let alone the modern ones. but that wooden car would be a beginning, people would seek for the ways to improve means of transportation.
Keldorn:
And hence my other post. I just didn't like how they moved the 2nd one so far ahead. They could have easily did a few decades later with more interesting problems (you know the ones stupid humans always make like war and greed n shit).
You had big cities with their own personal armies. Reminded more of shit like mega corporations and a dystopia than post apocalytpic. You were asked to perform diplomatic sabotage, corporate sabotage and theft. You had NCR who had the numbers to actually stand toe to toe with the BoS?? Apparently the NCR has gotten so big that it could send human waves in to be chewed up by BoS soldiers and keep them coming. Now I know the NCR isn't as big as China was during the Korean War.

Besides,like you said,everyone is entitled to their opinion.

They are entitled to an opinion not be talk like an asshat.
