Cars suck.

I recently inherited car, and at first I thought having a car would be cool… but I was wrong. Cars suck.First I had to go get the car insured. Since I have never had an accident, insurance was affordable (about $80 / month with a lot of coverage). After going to the insurance place I went to start the car, and it didn’t. So I called BCAA and they jump started it for me. I waited 45 minutes, then went to drive way. The car turned off, and didn’t start again. I had to call BCAA a second time.The car was towed to a repair place and I found out the alternator was broken and I might have to replace the battery as well. I recently inherited $500 in debt.Here is why cars suck:

  1. You have to insure them
  2. You have to fix them
  3. You have to pay for gas
  4. You have to park
  5. You have to drive in heavy traffic
  6. They make you lazy

Here is why not having a car does not suck

  1. You save a lot of money
  2. You get exercise (I’ve biked over 2000KM since the start of summer)
  3. Often bicycling places works out to be the same time as driving
  4. You don’t need to park or worry about traffic

Cars are evil! However, this weekend I should have my car all ready to go, so I should use it to its full potential and go on an adventure. Leave me some suggestions!
