I felt exactly the same and is why I left. It's not just transportation that's wrong, just overall I don't have the power to change it myself and I don't think there's enough or a push for it to change in my lifetime.

I just got tired of spending so much money on my car. Don't get me wrong, I loved that thing, and I babied the shit out of it. That being said, I don't want it in my life, it's like having a dependent and I don't miss having to wake up in the morning and bus across town to pick up my car because I decided to have two or three beers the night before.
