I live without a car, and yet I manage to do all[1] of the things you mention by biking, using public transit and rental cars/vans/trucks on occasion.
I thought it would be really annoying to live without a car, but it's actually quite nice, and I save so much money on fuel and maintenance.
[1] aside from the road courses. I race gocarts for fun instead.
- maerF0x0 8y agoI agree that gocarts are hella fun! My posting said > without someone having a car. Care to share how you go snowboarding, #3 and #5-8 ? I have read mr money mustache write a lot about what can be accomplished by a bicycle + trailer. But even he still has a low cost car.
- KozmoNau7 8y agoSnowboarding? Pack my stuff, take the train to the airport, fly to country with mountains, take train to ski resort town, go snowboarding. Optionally rent a car if necessary. Road trips? Rent a car, or fly somewhere interesting and rent a car locally. #5-8 I handle by not being needlessly paranoid and distrustful of other people. "The mentally ill and their obnoxious smells and fecal matter", seriously? Obviously when you have a car right there, you tend to gravitate towards it, when all you have is a hammer etc. I'm sure there's also a big cultural aspect to it. I also thought it would be hell to not have a car anymore, but it has turned out to rather easy and straight forward.
