  Oof I’d leave that martyr shenanigan to someone else. My vehicle is everything to me and I would never intentionally damage it.

    Yeah, I know there’s a lot of flimsy assumptions behind the sentiment…

    Curious question, though: is your vehicke important because of what it enables (maybe lifestyle or just a car-oriented city) or is it a status symbol or some core part of why you are (are you a driver or something?)

    Its odd to me one would be so important but I’ve always ridden bikes as well as seeing them as a tool and been fortunate to live in a small city with token public transport, so I’m just on a different part of the spectrum, really…

      I live in a 10 ft tall Mercedes Sprinter RV conversion. It is my entire life and my home. I live at the beach, I can wake up every morning at whatever appointment or job I have on any given day, I love this lifestyle and if anything ever happens to this van then I will buy another one and continue living like this by choice because this is my favorite lifestyle I’ve ever had in my entire life.
