    Okay you’re examples are bullshit.

    You can’t carry stuff? Are you serious? Yes you can carry four bags of food on public transport, it’s not difficult.

    Are you buying 10 litres of paint every day?

    You absolutely do have options, I did not live in an appointment in a city and had a large variety of options.

    Again, are you buying things from IKEA every day? Can you not hire a van for one day? It would be cheaper and more practical.

    These just sound like excuses. You sound like the type of person to buy a truck just on the possibility that you might need to transport a fridge once in a blue moon.

    Life with a car is the opposite of freedom when you are completely dependent on it to do anything.

        So what are they? How often do you buy 10 litres of paint? How often do you buy furniture? How does not having a car restrict you to one shop?

        Most people chose to drive a car because their town/ city has poor urban planning and public transportis an after thought. Go to a city that isn’t built for cars and you’ll see the opposite is true.
