| Feb 24, 2018 at 21:48 | comment | added | Joe W | personally i would prefer nothing over a skateboard | |
| Feb 24, 2018 at 21:46 | comment | added | NonCreature0714 | @JoeW I just want to point out I wasn't claiming otherwise -- my solution is a compromise between a car and nothing, just like in OP's question. | |
| Feb 24, 2018 at 21:45 | comment | added | Joe W | Just wanted to point out that there are a lot things that a skateboard can't do that a car can. | |

| Feb 24, 2018 at 21:06 | comment | added | NonCreature0714 | @JoeW I offer this other cool skateboard for tougher conditions: onewheel.com | |
| Feb 24, 2018 at 21:04 | comment | added | NonCreature0714 | @JoeW that is true! But the OP lives in California (based on other posts), and not in the north I think. | |

| Feb 24, 2018 at 20:58 | comment | added | NonCreature0714 | @joew It’s still a better option than no car at all! :) My answer is also in line with OP’s question, which is essentially seeking a reasonable compromise. A compromise, by nature, isn’t a perfect solution. | |
| Feb 24, 2018 at 20:02 | comment | added | Joe W | This doesn't help when you need to travel more then 20 miles or bring stuff home that is larger and/or uncomfortable to carry for longer distances. Not to mention all the schools that are in areas where weather gets bad making int impractical to travel for long outdoors. | |
