I have never had a car. I never grew up with easy access to a vehicle throughout my entire life and even now I do not have one.

This addiction is wholly alien to me. Cars are luxuries to me. I live in a city 1.5M people and the city is not a walking city imo, and takes 2h+ to get across the city.

I do not travel the entire city unless necessary, and instead I spend most of my time in 1/4 of the city. I bike, scooter, walk, skateboard and generally I don't miss the vehicle.

there are two exceptions. Moving into a new house, and going camping or hiking. Cars are unnecessary for the rest of my lifestyle.

it would only be a negative in many ways - with the costs, the insurance, the parking, the maintenance, the oil changes, the collisions etc. again...going out of the city ...and moving.

How do you transport the groceries? I feel like this is my only problem, 90% of the reason why I need a car. I would be unwilling to use some kind of cargo bike in the winter.
