I'm trying to phase driving out of my lifestyle because it pisses me off to be a slave to gasoline so these blood sucking vultures can make such obscene profits by ripping me off at the pump.3 years ago i was driving 500kms a week,now i'm doing about 50 per week,i've still got 4 bars left from a pre Xmas fill up

y even bother owning a car then...just sell it and save money that goes into insurance every month. rent a economy car if necessary (i.e. during weekends) since many rental companies will offer u free pickup and dropoff service.

not worth paying $$$ every month on insurance if ur only going to drive it 200km a month...pff

You know, it's not always cheap to rent cars. I looked into it. We have Zipcars and City Cars around here, as well as rental services like Hertz, Enterprise, etc. but they're not cheap at all around here.

I think owning a good entry-level, reputable car like the Toyota Yaris and using it conservatively is a pretty good choice, too.

Seriously, you'll be glad that you bought some of this stuff and are using it.
