Minimalism, one of the latest catch words, and pertains to more than just vehicles.
I didn't read all the posts here. And sorry but this whole topic is essentially a religious discussion, since some such outfits have been anti materialistic for years. We are material and need most everything that man has invented and created that makes our lives better.
Its a choice if you want less then do less don't let it be forced on those that aren't into it. Some of us want more and need it, especially tools, pretty much anything that makes things easier for us are tools. From a spoon or fork to eat with to a toilet or car to get from point A to point B. Not everyone can do without a this or a that do to physical conditions, maybe person A can walk just fine for many miles, but then person B may have knees or ankles that won't allow them to walk more than 20 feet. The mention of owning one vehicle? Sure then the day it breaks down for some major problem or is totaled, then you wish you had another one. In the end having some things make some folks happy.
