There are wealthy families usually from over seas. 3 brothers will buy a mansion together they will all live there with their wives, they all help each other and they buy 2 regular cars and a luxury car that they all share. They look at us Americans like we are crazy and I gotta say they kinda have a point.

It's how we do it. Some factors in choosing the car:
- Distance (gas milage)
- Destination (smaller car for inner city driving/parking)
- Safety of route (sometimes I drive over the mountains and one our cars is better suited)
- Number and size of passengers (children vs adults)
- Cargo (dump run, grocery shopping, etc)
- If I have to take a conf call when driving
We've got 1 car. If I need to go somewhere and the wife has it, I get the bus. It's a lot cheaper than owning 2 cars.
Nothing spices up a marriage like Communism.
Boutta seize the means of reproduction. Hammer that ass, and sickle those tiddies. Stand in a bread line to put a bun in the oven. It's OUR orgasm, comrade
One of our cars is a manual, and I'm the only one who can drive stick.
Would make the most sense really if you have a narrow driveway where one car is always blocked in, save on the valet parking moving games tbh
The kids are our deciding factor.
If one of us going somewhere with the little 'uns, then the "family car" with the nicer booster seats gets taken by whoever it is that has them. Whoever is getting the peace and quiet, drives the little runabout.
I usually take the little car, and it surprises me sometimes when I jump into the family car and I've got another 50bhp under my right foot.
That's what we do too.
We have two electric cars, a big one and a small one. The small one is “mine” and the big one is “his.” However, we both work from home so the only commute anymore is taking the kids to school. So, whenever possible, we take the little one because it’s more efficient by far. He doesn’t mind and thankfully it saves seat profiles, even if we always have to adjust the mirror.
We do the same, but opposite. We have a minivan and a smaller EV. The minivan is technically hers and the EV is mine, but it's really more what it's used for. If one of us is taking the kids somewhere (school, birthday parties, fun) we take the van. If we're running to the store, normal errands or just taking a single kid we'll use the EV.
It doesn't make sense for her to take the minivan to run to the store to pick up something small and it doesn't make sense for me to take the smaller car to bring the kids somewhere.
The day when they make that adjust to the profiles! In mine we found kind of a sweet spot for seating position with the mirror adjusted the same for both of us. Heights are close through.
I'm seeing cars with the rear view mirror is just a screen. At that point you shouldn't have to adjust it
Wouldn’t that be great? I think some fancy cars do it, but not ours. To be fair, it’s a small price to pay for giving gas companies and PG&E less money.
If you’re talking about adjustable rear view mirrors then I think one of the last and only cars to do it was the 90s Mercedes Benz S class. They had it memory linked with steering and seating. It was weird and cool.
Also, if you’re charging your car in a PG&E area you’re technically giving them more money since the gas they provide is natural gas and not petroleum gas. You’d be sticking it to BP or Cheveron (or standard oil if you want to go old school).
My wife and I each have our own cars, but they're both in her name so she can drive whatever the fuck she wants.
Who wants.to adjust the seat and mirrors every time they drive?
My wife and I are about the same height so we don't have to adjust our seats.
They must be similar sizes.
what's next? joint bank accounts?
My partner and I have joint financial accounts, but it still would be weird to us to take whatever car.
I don't get it, what's so special about this?
It’s just a reckless way to live and is frankly plunging our entire society into unabated chaos
The amount of cars: yes.
I could never do this, my car is one the few sacred places that can be truly my own. I'm not even sure I can let someone else sit in the driver's seat
