I traded in my car a couple of weeks ago and the guy at the dealer was so shocked that I only drove 11k miles in 4 years. He was like, do you even buy groceries? Well, working from home and strategically living close to all the places I regularly need to go to makes me drive less. As for me getting a new car after just 4 years, that’s another story.
I get what you mean, but I’m in a conservative state. But yes, just being able to work from home and afford to live close to the city is a privilege, and I’m aware of that.

Google had sent me an update of my usage for November and was all, “You drove 35 miles this month!”
It usually tells me things like 150 km, and then I go though and it’s another misclassified train trip
Lol
Wfh and strategic home location are privilege.
Disclaimer, I do this too.
But this is the “if your state/country is conservative/bad/repressive just move” of commuting.
