Got ya. It would of been nice if I could move next to Hank & Peggy & change my name to Bill :lol:
I live in a small unheard of town called Schriever & there's no public transportation here either. All the stores & businesses are over 15miles away in other towns/cities. Not being able to drive is major problem for me


I don't think I could stand living in a place like that. I prefer to live in more metropolitan areas rather than rural areas, because I'd die of boredom if I were to live in the country.

I don't drive, and I live in Arlington; but since I still live with my parents, they can drive me around everywhere. I don't know what I'm going to do once I'm out of the house, though. 8O

Besides, why spend ~$15/day on gasoline and depreciation (not including parking costs) when I can spend just $3/day taking a train?


That's life in an area with lots of sprawl. I spend $10/week on gasoline here on weeks where I'm driving every day.
