[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You can probably use a cab every time you'd usually use a car and still save money. I don't remember the exact figure but when I was a teenager my father explained to me that owning a car costs something like 7k per year. And I don't mean on car payments or the original car cost. I mean on things like insurance, gas, maintenance, parking, storage, etc. [/quote] That seems really high. I drive from DC to Baltimore 4 days a week for work, plus errands on the weekend and pay $150/month on gas (high estimate) so $1800/year; our insurance is $700/year; maintenance was $1000 (4 oil changes, new brakes and rotors, and some other maintenance). That's $3500/year and I put 25,000 miles a year on my car. [/quote]
