gave up my car a couple years back. trimmed down to just the van. wife drives that. my daily round trip commute of 22 miles is great. I ride year around (no lightening). Have saved a small fortune in car related expenses. It was tough at first having to plan ahead for who's got the car or not but now we hardly think about it.
