    Assuming certain conditions have been met (reliable public transit exists where I live, society hasn't collapsed, etc), it would be amazing to not have to own a car. Tremendously huge money holes and barriers to upward mobility in places where you can't easily get around by bike or bus.

    I live in Winnipeg and you`re fucked without a car.

    I agree though. Cars are moneypits.

    I want a Tesla model 3 but I have no cash. Go on, feel sorry for me.

    Portland is a great city to not have a car, but it would be a logistical nightmare to sell mine right now. Maybe my next apt will be closer in/ nearer to work.

    I drive a 1997 Honda CR-V. I got it two years ago after my last car was totaled. It has 196k miles on it, 45k of that is mine. Had to replace quite a few key parts thus far, most recently the OEM catalytic converter, but it's a great car. I put some General Grabbers on it, which affected my gas mileage a little bit, but it meets 90% of my off-road needs. Love that car so much.

    I just got a new 2016 Honda Civic EX to replace the 2008 Lexus ES350 that my mom had previously had and gave to me once I got my license. The civic is fantastic and I love it to so far.

    I have a 2014 Mazda 3 hatchback. I've had it for just over a year now and it's a ridiculously fun car.

    I'm currently leasing a bottom tier Volkswagen jetta. It's very basic and gets good mileage.

    I drive a 2014 Scion XB and get a lot of shit from people thinking it is the "hamster car". I absolutely love the thing.

    I drive a 2007 Mitsubishi Galant Ralliart edition; absolutely love this car. Handles amazing well, fast, Rockford Fosgate sound system, plenty of interior space, easy to use dash controls, satellite radio, sunroof, the works. (pic below not my actual car)

    I've wanted a Jeep Wrangler for as long as I can remember so I finally got one (a used 2012) about two months ago. The gas mileage sucks obviously, but it's impossible not to have a big dumb smile on my face when the weather is nice and I'm driving it around with the top down and doors off. The four-wheel drive when we had a blizzard was awesome as well.
