A very wise saying: Nothing succeeds like excess!
Small wonder the millennium generation, the smarter generation, is averse to owning a car, and seek work in cities with the best mass transit system.
The car manufacturers, dealerships, auto mechanics will forever think: a car is a necessity, they'll have to pay! No pay, no go!
Wrong! Go ahead keep thinking that!
I did a 2 week experiment this summer, living without a car, and I passed with flying colors! As a result, I now take the bus to work 2 out of 4 nites now and loving every minute of it, all that time to read! At this point in time, it wouldn't take much of a push (like being charged $800 to replace a Fob to my car) to go completely car-less!
