If you are a DINK household, do you drive 2 cars?

Why?
DH and I currently share a car as we do not want an extra car payment. |

How can you share a car? Weird.
Before we had kids we still needed two cars. |

| 3. His, mine, and a sports car for fun. We like cars. |

Yes. We already had two cars when we moved here.
Will probably keep two cars, a smaller fuel efficient car (or hybrid or electric) and a four wheel drive SUV or wagon. |

| Uh, yeah. If you're double income, won't both of you need transportation during the work day eventually? |

| We don't own any cars. |

"Transportation" doesn't have to equal "car." |

| We did because we had the cars before we got married and saw no reason to consolidate. Mine was paid off, his payment was just 100 a month. But then I totaled my car and we didn’t get another. In fact we just barely became a two car family, and the kids are 13 and 9. I don’t like car payments either, OP. |

| We have always had to cars because we’ve always lived places where we each needed a car during the day. We also both grew up in suburban, car-dependent areas so this feels normal to us. |

| Uh, one for me to get to work and run independent errands etc, and one for DH to get to work etc. How is that difficult to understand? |

| Two cars because we’re two independent people who both need to go places, sometimes even at the same time. |

Yes have 2 luxury SUVs. No car payments. We only pay cash for cars. |

| Yes because we live in the suburbs and drive opposite directions to our respective jobs. No car payments though, we bought used cars we could pay cash for. |

| I don't have the ability to share a car with anyone. When I am ready to leave in ready to leave. We both had opposite commutes ore kids. I hate the idea of being stranded or having to wait for a ride. |
