Cars: Palermo/Mondello

It is strange how much the car cultures can different so much between Italy and Sicily. Well Rome and Palermo to be more specific. In Palermo and Mondello there are almost no Smart cars or Vespas. The roads are also much larger, longer, and paved. I was in awe just to see a four lane road that stretched for miles. Which, is also why there is a much less significant presence of the vehicles mentioned previously.

Also, you actually see a pride in people's vehicles here. In Rome everyone drives like a nut job and half of their cars are all banged up as a result. In Sicily I have noticed many cars are polished up, had some custom work done to them, and you can tell that they want their car to be unique. This was refreshing to see since most of the cars I have seen in Rome were garbage, even the ones that could look alright would never receive the care necessary for them to.
