That's what I did. We're a one car/2 bike family. The car doesn't get driven much except to get groceries. You won't miss it at all!

A car, what's a car :P I have a scooter to go to work and my bike for longer rides and weekend trips. When I really need a car a friend or my parents can lend me one so no problem there

I'm not getting rid of my truck. Need it for towing boats, utility trailer, dump runs, winter driving. Definitely using it a lot less. Probably won't replace my 03 Chevy long bed,reg cab work truck until about 2018. Rather have a Harley and a Mastercraft ski boat than a new truck. So I'm not white trash, just look like it in my truck. Not that that's a bad thing.

Man one painful thing i forgot about in this whole process is the tire kickers.....Gotta love em......

Put it on Craigslist Monday and had about 6 calls on it. Showing it 3 times tomorrow. Wish me luck!

Kinda funny. I put it up for sale Monday. It has rained like crazy every day since then......

Oh well. Guess i need to invest in a better rain suit!

I'm doing the same. Has more to do with the loss of a job, but still going down to one two-wheeled vehicle.

Sorry for the loss of job. One of my biggest reasons for doing this is the extra savings. Would be a major help not having that payment if something ever happened to mine or my wifes job.

I just dont see the value of paying $404 a month for something i dont use....

Smart thinking. Mine's about paid off, but it's just a big hunk of cash sitting in the driveway as it depreciates. I may buy another at some point if it fits my needs.
