So not only are you totally car dependent but your house is too small?
Have you ever considered a change of lifestyle, or at least moving
closer to your work?

All I get in this thread is a load of excuses for resisting beneficial

be accomplished remotely, which is a step in the right direction.

Obviously a lot of car travel could be avoided by using the internet
instead, which is my point.
