What if it breaks down for good? What if you need to go shopping for parts? It’s not always that simple.
I wouldn’t call myself a city slicker. People from the country think I am, but I spent a few years working in NYC and people there I thought I was a country bumpkin. I just can’t win.
Cars are always fixable. However, if it was going to cost more to repair the car that what it was worth, I’d sell it for scrap and buy a new car. If I needed to go shopping for parts, I’d can order them over the internet or take one of our other two vehicles to town. I could also call a friend or family member to give me a lift (us little folk out here in the boondocks like to help each other out like that, probably a foreign concept to most city liberals).
