So far, we will rent a van for 2nd time this year, for 1 day probably to buy some furniture.
That's all.
Last time was to move my modest belongings a few months ago. For 1 day too.

We were unable to go "car-free", but we did go "car-light" when we went from two cars to one, plus two scooters (and multiple bikes of course!). Car free isn't really an option for us (although I would love it), but even just dropping down to one car saved us a lot in insurance, property taxes, gas, etc. It certainly helped that we don't have children or pets, though!
I wasn't sure how one car would work out for us in the winter, but it was fine and now it's been three years. As long as my job situation doesn't change, we will never have two cars again.
It was abit strange that when I started to earn a full-time salary with an established "career", my parents were wondering when I would buy a car.
When already they knew I wasn't good at driving, didn't like it, etc.
It was the status thing.
Reminds me of the Singaporean stereotypical aspirational "5Cs": cash, car, credit card, condo, country club.Quote:
