For about the last twenty years, my wife and I have had a pretty simple rule: if we don't need to drive to work, we don't need to own a car. We applied this even in car-centric places by taking advantage of carshare services.

People don't seem to understand just how easy modern carshare services have become, which is too bad, as they would benefit almost everyone.
