Share your plans. Will you keep the "conventional" (gasoline or diesel fueled, non-hybrid, turbocharged OK, Fuel Injected or carburated) vehicle marketplace alive or are you going to do something else next time you have the chance?

Yeah I may end up buying one more conventional vehicle, some of those late 70s and 80s vehicles got good mileage and are not too hard to work on. I have a small biz and may eventually decide going car free is not worth it, but right now I'm having fun. I'm going to really resist getting into vehicle ownership again since I don't like complications.

I've been anti-car even before I knew about PO. Now I have such a powerful justification that there's no chance I'm ever learning to drive.

My last two cars were chosen with fuel efficiency as a major
consideration. Each has averaged 45 (UK) mpg, other factors
being size, cost, reliability and crash safety. I plan to keep
my cars for at least ten years each, so resale value is low importance.
In practice, the most I have managed is nine years. The
last one suffered structural rust, and the one before was
stolen. Keeping a car running for as long as possible reduces
overall energy and resource consumption relative to buying
the latest fuel efficient model every couple of years.

Now I may be forced by my wife to buy a larger car to fit my new family
in, but I will try out until either a family sized hybrid comes on
the market (in my price range), or full electric vehicles become
practical.
