Tell me about it... I used to own a nice big Bronco and could slide right underneath and fix just about anything I needed to. With an Altima it's a whole different story.

Once again you remind me of why I enjoy NOT owning an automobile.

If The Box wants to go to Lace, I'm sure I could make some calls. I have better connections at another club in North Jersey. That guy used to work for the Lace empire but went out on his own.

Not you, but in general all the car problems people have.

Maybe not you specifically, but stories of lost keys and broken down cars are all the reminder I need of why I love not needing a car to leave in NYC. Car payments, parking and insurance costs would just add to that.

Plus, it is easier for me to drive in left-side drive countries since I am no so entrenched one way or the other. :D

Ahh, I wish I lived somewhere where I wasn't so dependent on a car. I wish for a lot of things.

We did walk a lot this weekend though, grocery store, coffee shop, and the park.

I'll keep it in mind...we could always put this off to better weather and combine it with golf.

This brings up an interesting question...

When traveling abroad, do Box members usually rent a car or rely on public transportation? I know it all depends on the city and the transportation options available, but I'm curious.

In the past I have always stuck to public transportation, but I am thinking of getting a car for one or two of the honeymoon destinations.
