I disagree about computer to car analogy. When I help a computer user understand about basic networking I most always use the Post Office(ISP) and a letter as data, the house the person lives in as the IP address (not withstanding DHCP) and their Social Security as their Mac Address. That very simple analogy helps the people I am trying to explain TCP/IP.
