We just moved from a very rural area to a large city and am surprised at all the food delivery/rent-a-bike-or-scooter/ride-share/car-share/random delivery/etc. apps and services that are available. What do you find you get the most use of and most value for money?
I didn’t have a car in high school and I still think it severely stunted my social development and I didn’t recover it until college. I missed so many invites because I had no way to get there.
And don’t get me wrong, I love my car because I’m an enthusiast, but I don’t want to get into it just to grab a single item from the grocery store.
As someone who also loves their vehicle, I hate the fact that I need one to function in day to day life. I only want to use my car the same way someone with a boat enjoys their vehicle. For fun when I feel like it.
100%. I was always prepared to give up my beloved sportscar for a better world and walkable cities, but that one NotJustBikes video, about how walkable cities are better for car enthusiasts too, made me realize I can just have both.
Hell, imagine if you didn’t need to daily your car, so you could leave it on the jack for six months to do a major mod. It’s literally better for everyone!
