QuestionText:	Hi, mods! Can Rinne and friends steal a car?<br><br>Restoring a car from a junkyard would cause issues with the homeless population, so we plan for them to steal one from the wealthy or the government instead. If this is possible:<br><br>1. Since "the younger generation views cars as nothing but a type of parade-float", how fast do these cars typically go? Could they modify the car to go faster?<br><br>2. Can they hide the stolen car in the woods, or is the risk of being found too high?<br><br>3. For aesthetic purposes, what make of car would be possible for them to steal? (Otherwise, we'll go wild with it!)<br><br>Thanks!

AnswerText:	It would certainly be a... challenge to steal a car from the upper class. During the parade it would be <i>exceedingly</i> difficult to succeed, given all the attention on them, and the owners are quite protective (and proud) of their cars. If they're planning to liberate one from someone's garage, that's also... hard. <br><br>If they do have some plan for this:<br><br>1. The cars could reach 50-60 mph. If they have the knowledge and parts, they could hypothetically modify them. However, outside Karteria there aren't really roads any longer. There weren't that many leading outside the city to begin with (as the age of the personal vehicle had only just begun, and then abruptly ended), and they haven't been maintained. There is not anywhere to go with a car.<br><br>2. If they could make it out there... it's also probable that it would be found. There's not that many functional cars remaining in the city, and those that exist are monitored, tracked. Not because they're afraid of theft of the entire vehicle (as trying to move a car around the city would be <b>very visible</b> and quickly shut down), but instead vandalism, or the stealing of parts. There's some valuable metals in there!<br><br>3. The cars themselves would be along the lines of what's mentioned [https://alogos.dreamwidth.org/7086.html#Transportation here]. Vehicles solidly from the 1920s-40s in style. They're sleek, they're stylin, but they're not really all-terrain vehicles suited for roughing it out in the swamps of Asphodel Fields or the hilly, thicket-covered and tree-riddled Woods.
