Way more than half. Even if you live in an urban area, you occasionally need to drive out of the urban area.

- kennywinker 6y agoI already solve this problem on the regular, since I live in an urban area but do not own a car. There are car coops and car share programs that make renting a vehicle incredibly painless. Not hard to imagine a world where there are in-the-city cars and inter-city cars that are designed quite differently.
- valuearb 6y agoI’m not borrowing cars from a dirty hippie co-op when I need to drive my kids somewhere.
- kennywinker 6y agoFrom your tone I can tell you're not listening, but the car coop in my city has clean well maintained cars that are all less than 5 years old. The car share app has a fleet of prius v's that are in even nicer shape than the coop's cars. But how often would you need a vehicle that goes +40mph to take your kids somewhere? It'd only be useful for drives where you'll be outside of the city for long enough to make the lower speed matter - since for city driving the limit is almost always traffic and stoplights not your vehicle's top speed.
- arcticbull 6y agoIndeed, there’re no more of a “dirty hippy car coop” than Enterprise is lol.
- kortilla 6y agoOp was being an asshole but not wanting to share cars with the population at large is a thing whether it’s “a dirty hippie coop”, a regular rental car, or the backseat of a Lyft.
