Exactly. Some people aren't car people but others like myself are. Driving the

right car on the right road gives me joy than most things cannot. There is a freedom to this that very few things can provide. My guess is that pilots feel the same thing when they fly, but I haven't ever felt the desire to be a pilot. (that might have been different if I could fly fighters, but a twin prop...no thanks)
