It's not "car ownership" that we value. It's autonomy and independence.
A teenager doesn't just "want a car." He wants that freedom that car gives him... to go somewhere without bugging his parents or friends for a ride. If you're in a big city or someplace where this is not the norm, I could see you believing otherwise.
(And I laughed at "guaranteed clean." Right. All that means is you get a refund when you find the dog turd in the back seat.)
"A teenager doesn't just "want a car." He wants that freedom that car gives him."
Precisely, and this is why owning the car isn't that important. This teenager presumably still has to pay for the car and fuel, or bug his parents for it. Paying for the (cheaper) self driving ride is no different.
