I want bread would translate to haluan leipää.

But I want shoes translates to haluan kengät, not haluan kenkää?

In English something you sit on you ride, a bike, a motorcycle, a horse, a ferris wheel. Where something you are inside of you drive, a car, a truck, a forklift.

Meaning that you ride a cabriolet.
Nah. It's just a bonkers rule :)
