Every time I'm deafened by a bus or truck on the street I dream of this kind of thing coming to New York.

Don’t know why you’re getting downvoted, this is a great point and an often-overlooked benefit of EVs.

I walk my two year old home along a main road in a major city every day and the noise and diesel fumes are a real bother. That we might not have to deal with either in future is a lovely thought.

Once truck and bus noise is gone, only private prop planes will be left.
