I'm no on my husband's plan because he has as terrible HMO and I sued a doctor on it for malpractice before. I promised myself I would never, ever, no matter what go back into that HMO.

Getting rid of a car is impossible. My husband works 45 minutes away and there is no public transit to his office.

I am a news editor. I have to have a car to go wherever news is breaking. I cover wildfires in remote back country areas, for example.
