RE: Mass transit:

MagLev trains, in such an infrastructure that would take you to central hubs of any area that you'd want to go, and diesel-electric busses which could get you the rest of the way, within blocks. Everyone would have a "briefcase" which contained an electric scooter that ran on a solar panel, with a top speed of "walking with a kick in your step".

Hey, look... modern efficiency...
