Chapter 20

Now the two are finally considering giving up the car in order to fully experience the Minimite lifestyle. Given that this represented their last thread of technology use, it was huge. Not being really sure when or how to go about that, it all worked out well since the license was out of order and they didn’t have insurance. They were able to sell it and with that money bought a horse and buggy. I understand that this was the whole purpose, but I think that limits them greatly, now they have no choice but to really spend their entire time in the community, without random escapades. Stripping their last technological resource, this may really mean they have decided to live here permanently. They are even signing papers to buy a farm, and with Wilbur being elected, things seem to fall into place. At the same time we see that not everyone is cut out for this lifestyle, with Bill returning to his old ways in the city.
