I'm pretty aware of the costs of vehicles and delivery. I can afford the vehicles. When I need them they're way easier than hiring a vehicle. I have hobbies you can't fit into an Uber, such as a plasma cutter, and forget renting a U-Haul to look at a lathe or cnc.
I biked everywhere for 7 years when I moved to Seattle, 2800 miles a year. Still was very nice to have the car.
If I feel like snowboarding I can just go. Which was highly dependent on work, especially night skiing, which you can't Uber to, and the one bust required me to only go on Saturday with 4 hour overhead and a 30 minutes Uber in the wrong direction. The opportunity cost of all that planning is worth the $2000 I spend a year on licensing and insuring my vehicles. Gas is gas be it Uber or my car.
Not everyone fits into one mold.
If I have to get deliveries with someone else's car then I've just externalized the car but I'm still very car dependent
