I consistently see all of these giant trucks owned by urban portlanders, and all i think is: Wow, what an expensive minivan. I bought a house recently. People were shocked. How can you afford it? Easy. I didn't own a car for years. I took the bus an hour each way. I fought off lifestyle creep, and the 80k they spent on fancy cars over the last decade I socked away waiting for the market to be favorable.
