I am so opposed to walking into a dealership and buying anything that my last three vehicles were bought from private sellers on Craigslist. After the most recent crapped out, I gave up even on that and now use transit full time. The entire ecosystem around buying, owning, maintaining, and disposing of privately-owned automobiles is just...well, bad to me. And I'm tired of dealing with it so I won't. Instead, I give car2Go, ReachNow, and ZipCar around a hundred dollars per month, an insurance company under $20/month for a non-owner liability policy, and my employer gives me a transit pass as a benefit (though my household does have fare expenses for my spouse and kid).
(Offer does not apply to cities without a viable mass transit system. Your experience may vary. See a doctor for transit trips lasting more than four hours. Ticket vending machines on the upper level. Do not cross or stand in the roadway.)
