I live in Michigan and my time is spent between two vastly different affluence levels; the richer sides have excruciatingly bright headlights that blind me in my non-tinted Sonata, and the poorer sides are riddled with the droning of modified and/or broken exhausts.

Used to like cars at one point but nowadays I find that my only (okay, only _daily_) grievances in life are noise from cars & driving at night in rich areas, both of which have soured my views on cars.

Shitty truck lifts with improperly adjusted headlights unifies them both.
I actually prefer the newer trucks that have shitty lifts over ones without since that tends to at least point their headlamps over my car's roof as they try to ride 6" from my bumper.
this seems like wild generalizations from both angles you present and I can't figure out where you actually fall in this, as the narrator.
I thought it was pretty clear. He finds that cars primarily contribute nuisance to his life, so he doesn't like them that much anymore.
