I live downtown. I am not afraid to rent a car or take taxis if I need to get somewhere. I like feeling smug when colleagues gripe about the cost of gas or parking. I have kind friends who take me to out-of-city bike rides. I like not worrying about dinging it, or insuring it, or repairing it. I like getting places by bike or on foot. I don't need a car.
So I checked 5 options -- environmental, financial, simplicity, other and (most important of the lot) JUST BECAUSE.
