Perhaps you should take a peek at this article and read how public transit did evolve in the land of your youth.

Of course you are still free to imagine that none of it is true and that trams would have continued to successfully provide convenient public transit to the commuters of the U.S. as if it were still 1918.
Due to the huge sunk cost and lack of changing routes once laid compared to busses, I believe that cities/metro areas would have stayed smaller and more contained compared to where busses were employed.
