One of the big reasons i cant move to the suburbs. I am from the Bay and live in Chicago and although i have a car, i really do not need it. Most of what i need is in easy walking distance (grocery store, Target, bank, Walgreens, restaurants, bars, etc...) and more if i use public transportation.

The next thing i need to look into is a folding bike, possibly an electric one, to increase my range without needing my car.

7 decades of car only centric development and not investing in public transportation has caught up to American society.
Its not even a failure it was designed by purpose. Alot of issues we face today is because cacs did not want to interact with black people in the US and greedy auto makers wanted everyone to buy their cars.

Dude around the block from me does that I'm pretty sure. Every month he seems to have different cars in his driveway, usually smashed up and with chalk markings on the windshield. I think he fixes them up and flips them, I've been wanting to ask him about it. I bet it's fun to just hit those up even if you not planning on buying anything, like a flea market.

I was in between cars and needed a beater ... I went to the auction with my boy and came up on a clean newer model Impala .. (Super Clean) for under 10K .. :blessed:

I rode that thing til I sold it to a young Mexican mother ... but I had put a tv , beat and rims on that bad boy .. But its a Chevy so repairs started getting expensive and lights kept coming on .. :hubie:

I grabbed a Benz off that lot after that .... Bet I got as much p*ssy in the Impala as I did in the Benz :ufdup:

Looked like this but white .. wasn't an SS :

I don't know how they do it man. I see so many dudes with new Raptors, Rams and Silverados with lifts and off-road kits. Women with big Denalis, Broncos, and Wagoneers. They probably paying $1500/month for some of those trucks and SUVs.

shyt is crazy. nikkas dont care when it comes to car payments.
