Yep, my point exactly. You cannot tell a book by it's cover in this day and age. Anybody can get "stuff" with a creative finance person. Does not mean they are in good shape at all. It is all a guessing game and I guess they are all back to square one to rethink the way they see the prospective "Fish". Just so you know in about 10 deals a day, I have maybe one with "A" credit. Scarey numbers folks!!!!!
If it means I will find the woman of my dreams, then tell me what car to buy and I will go get it tomorrow.
By the way Escalades and Excursions are way up there!!!!!!!!

Nope...guys are ok, but I'd never date one without a car. Or with one for that matter.

well i dunno if id date a guy that doesnt own a car, but thats only cause im into the lady folk!

but for me, dating a woman without a car, no biggie. Lol, id say it almost gives you some power right of the bat, your the one in control of when and where you met or go. Than again, show me a man that doesnt like to drive.

I don't understand how a man can go without a licence I can see not having a car for a bit, but guys that dont go for there licence so they can atleast buy a car in the future when $$$ gets better e.t.c... comeeee onnnn!lol! I could of course see having a medical problem or something that you cant drive a vehicle safely, but for a guy that has no medical conditions... its just plain silly! I can relate to this a bit because my own brother who is 36 dos'nt have his licence yet.lol, myself I got mine when I was 19, and I can remember it was a great relief although I could'nt afford a car of my own until 2 years later.

To the original poster: Amen to that, brother.

I don't own a car, and never have. Wouldn't take one as a gift. I estimate that when taking into account the pro-rated cost of the car, gas (the price of which is only going Northwards), insurance, parking, maintenance, etc. I am looking at $10,000+ per year in extra expense after taxes! What can I do with $10,000? I can save for early retirement and still have plenty left over for nice candlelit dinners in fancy restaurants and weekend getaways to tropical destinations (HINT HINT ladies). ;-)

My recommendation is to either wait a few years when the cost of gas alone is going to see a lot more people having to become carless or just start asking out women you see on the bus. ;-)

I find the idea that cars = freedom to be strange. Cars = huge expense = working more = servitude for the "privilege" of owning a car. While society determines that work = freedom, well let's just say that this is a calculus to which I cannot subscribe. No wonder people have such a tough time retiring comfortably after a lifetime of heavy lifting.

I went for a nice long drive to meet someone yesterday, he has no car, just got layed off and lives in a small place. We spent the day walking in the parks, went for a drive so he could show me a few special places around town. I had a great day, we got to know each other and yes I would do it again, because I now have a new friend.
So, that answers the questions on 2 threads here at one shot.
My question is, whats wrong with your feet? People can't walk anymore?
When I lived in the city I took TTC everywhere, want to get out of town, rent one.
Now I need one, I start work at 3 in the morn.
What happened to your sense of adventure and compromise?

I don't own a car because when my common-law wife left me two years ago, she took it with her. Our other, older car which I was allowed to keep, died right after Christmas last year. Since she left me with all the credit card bills etc., I cannot afford to buy another right now. I don't really message girls on POF anymore because of this, they all seem to want a guy with a car. That's fair enough I guess though, if a girl wants a guy with a car, she should get a guy with a car.

Personally if someone is going to judge what type of person you are because of what you own or don't own, why bother to date her at all? Also, why isn't there a forum asking "Would you date a woman who didnt have a car?".

My point: stay away from people who judge you or decide to date you by what you have/own. Stick with people who decide wether or not to date you on who you are.

to be honest, i had plenty of girls who dated me without having a car (have to buy a new engine and no money to do it ).... i feel that if the girl wouldn't date you because she doesn't want to walk or SHE needs a chauffeur, its either because she is too fat to leave her house or she is a gold digging wallet burying murder you for the life insurance ****... sure, having a car show stability in the guys financial life, but is that all you should be looking for? really, my last girlfriend.... I have a car tha broke down and she ended up driving me everywhere (though i never asked for rides and most the trips where going to the mall for her) it didn't effect our relationship (like it should )... Im sorry, but you have to be really cold to reject a guy just because he has no car or a has a car, but its not something you see yourself in.... its the person you should be considering, not their luxuries... and yo, what is this crap about "all women" and "most guys"... are you really a sexest pig that believe women are unequal? you cannot, being a guy, even suggest what a women is thinking... you cannot even suggest what another man is thinking for that matter... watch people.... im going to be riding my skooter with my girl on the back and she'll still be with me because (im not going to pick the first girl that walks my way)(she likes me****(very nice skooter)(my fart don't stink) its not about what i'm riding, its about who I am... and this is just figuritively speaking for those who took it seriously.... Now that i believe i made my point, lets all go to my house for peanutbutter and dill pickles

dude i aint saing women are materialistic, but they are
I would never expect a woman to date me without a car, its just one of those things, A woman wants to know there man is independant, and all that, and a car is a good indication on who you are. a guy driving a done up honda civic compared to a classy caddilac shows to a degree where he is in life and how he spends his money. Just think of what not having a car is saying? i dont think it is a deal breaker, but the car you drive does say a bit about you, so make sure it sais somthing good.

I'm dating a guy who doesn't have a car, nor even a G1. Hopefully I can save up enough $ to get my G before it expires in July. I'm carless & will be for many years to come. But I can afford to rent a car every third weekend & plan to do so. I know my b/f will more then likely never drive & thats doesn't bother me at all... I love driving (sure its been a year since I last drove & then 2yrs before that lol) & don't mind touring about for someone else as long as I get help with the bills, its all good

Oh god Sweet LMAO
I pay for sex huh ??? ok, how much did I pay you ??? when did we have sex ??? And how many times when my car was working did I offer to meet you as we only worked like 5 mins away from each other in Brampton ???

You shot down a girl and this is what you get in return -- and this is suppose to be a single mother raising 2-3 kids -- I feel for them

As for OT - I saw nicely blocked yesterday by someone, as soon as she knew my car wasn't working. Now she doesn't drive, she has never gotten her license, and she lives at home. DO I mind ?? nope, if she wants to choose her next friend or bf on the fact of him driving them so be it. Shallowness was never a vote on my ballot

Hummmm vehicles are convienient forsure. I've had 2 and I've had none. Doesn't matter to me really.

Why do you have to pick her up anyways for a *date*? Why not just meet somewhere? But than again prolly the same type of person / people that ask the boring questions first


1) what do you do for work?
2)what kind of vehicle do you have?
3) own or rent or board a room or live at home?

Trolls..............

why not just ask Amex, Visa, Mastercard, Discover or Diners

and I do wonder how NYC or Metro places like that would answer this question?

Insurance is crazy forsure and keeping a vehicle on the road & gas is expensive as well. Guess that means your just more sensible and environmental

for the OP 2nd thought wonder how the same ppl would respond if they didnt' know about you not having a vehicle, you picked them up in limo & went on the date???

you would prolly get a stalker out of the deal




is hard work! keep casting ! find the mermaid that will build the boat with you.

Most of girls Ive dated, would expect the guy to drive them around...What kind of car were you looking at getting? I'm 21 yrs old and have a modded honda civc and it costs me less then $2000/yr for insurance. There are lot of companies that are out there that cater to older drivers, esp if you put your life insurance, house, etc with their company.

as another person with a troublesome medical issue re driving, heck if the fact I need to drive or chauffeur or own a vehicle is that material...too bad. I survive travel without mooching rides, I pay my way, be it taxi's, trains, aeroplanes....and to be honest...you want a nice relaxing date with dinner, a carafe of wine,****ails, dancing....why put the onus on anyone....I have many times picked my dates up in a Taxi...and never had a complaint.....

I am new here,so I will give this a try.Some of us pay support.I have no probelm doing so,but it does leave me with less.Everything I need is with in a half hour of me.So walking is no problem.I Do not expect to be driven anywhere.If your a good man you expect to talk and walk and relaxe on the way to where ever your going.If your a jerk you pull up on your bike,,drop it on the flowers and say hey baby how do u feel about riding the handle bars.Got any beer.burp!If your a good guy with a car,your pull up pick her up and talk relaxe and drive.If your a jerk ,first off,you, your gonna get laid because of what u drive.You pull up and swagger up and love your self so much your must check your reflection in the window,and hey theres a nice girl next store..Nice guys are nice guys car or not,,,and jerks are jerks
