Moved the following to talk because it's original research and speculative:

==Popularity==

Parker's Ferry is by far probably the most popular and heaviest used of the North Carolina cable ferries. In the height of the summer the ferry has been known to haul nearly 30 cars per day. This may not seem like a lot, but taking into account the ferry's rural location, this is a heavy number.

==Replacement==

Many have worried over the years that the ferry might be replaced by a bridge. DOT officials have constantly said that the ferry will likely never be replaced with a bridge since a bridge over this river would cost millions of dollars in an already stretched state budget. The road that the ferry serves is also considered a secondary road which carries mainly local traffic and probably would not warrant the justification of building a multi million dollar bridge.
