Wow if only not owning a car worked outside of a city. Except it doesn't, even in the city, if you have family outside of the city how do you visit them? Would you rent a car or have someone make the trip to get you?
- jghn 4y agoI interpreted the GP as suggesting instead of BMWs, Teslas, and nice SUVs there are cheaper alternatives. This includes more bottom of the barrel cars. On your other question, I was a carless city dweller for many years. And yes I would fill in the blanks with rental cars on occasion.
- screye 4y agoYeah, I understand that a family of 4 will want to own 1 car. However, upper-middle class American families often have 2/3 cars due to lack of public transport infrastructure. Alternately, the densest cities can allow for a car-free lifestyle with rentals for out-of-town trips. However, the costs might be the same as owning a standard sedan. ($30-40k). I won't consider this bottom of the barrel at all.
