The lase year I owned a car, I drove it less than 1500 miles. I just hate driving, hate paying for the gas, and hate giving the dmv so much money. At 500 bucks a year for insurance, I was paying 33 cents a mile. When you add dmv fees, gas, oil changes, etc., it makes absolutely no sense for me to own a car! Then you add in the damage to the environment (seriously negligible on a 150 cc 4-stroke) and adding to our dependence on foreign oil (again, negligible on a 150 cc 4-stroke) I just couldn't justify it anymore. If and when I need a car or truck, I can rent one cheaper than that!
