This thread is turning into a list of horror stories including mine,
In 2006 two years before quitting my job and moving here I bought a new Chevy Caviler for $10,000, it gets 35 mph. I made double payment and paid it off in 24 months then moved here knowing that it may be my last new car in a ss lifestyle, I also bought an older cheap pickup for a spare vehicle and hauling but only insure one at a time because it cost $30 a month per vehicle.
I know I said I would build / modify a 3 wheel basket bike to run on a electric motor and with the temperate winters here in the mid-south it would be usable all year around, but the roads are not conducive to its use because of no road shoulders and the high speed homicidal cell phone drivers.
I guess if I got to the point of not being able to drive I would look into the organizations that offer free rides to the grocery store and and such.
