Zero. I walk bike and bus everywhere. I much prefer the extra money in my pocket and healthier lifestyle to a small amount of convenience.
I'm 19. I also live downtown Edmonton where you cant find a parking spot and go to school where parking is overly expensive and just as easy to bus to. I also work at the stadium and Rexall where parking is equally expensive, if not worse, and faster to get to via train anyways.
So really, what's the point?
I have one, my '02 Chevy Cavalier. The odometer doesn't work, the motor is burned out on the driver's side window, and the muffler is held on by a wire coat hanger. 
Oh, and that plastic piece that you pull over the sunroof...that flew off when my friend tried to open the sunroof without pulling it back at about 75mph on the interstate in Des Moines.

For me, I waited til I was 21, and then only because public transport was messing up too often
I grew up in a town of about 3,500 so you calling 70,000 a small town...maybe a small city. 
Around here we call that nearly twice as big as the nearest big city.If you really lived in a small town there would be no shuttle bus going anywhere because it's simply not cost-effective to operate.
I would probably bike on a daily basis if I didn't have my daughter. I'd still keep the car at home though for those days when I need to go to another city for a shoot.
I used to live so far out it technically wasnt part of the small town it was closest too. It was the bushy area in between small towns!
Really...it was.
None for me as I gave up driving over five years ago.
So, you have one of the ones in better condition on the roadI have one, my '02 Chevy Cavalier. The odometer doesn't work, the motor is burned out on the driver's side window, and the muffler is held on by a wire coat hanger.
I have no cars registered to my name
We have a small car lot, so I just smack a dealer plate on the car and go!

My friend had a Cavalier that actually lasted 200,000 miles, so I thought it wouldn't be a bad buy...at least it isn't a swamp like my Neon was. That thing leaked so much water into the trunk and floor every time it rained, my car was an ecosystem unto itself.

Eh, you try to drive an older vehicle. They are harder to drive than the new ones. The no power steering and no power breaks, I don't think a lot of kids these days could drive a car like that. Have you?

Had a 98 Cavelier. Took care of it and the motor still blew. Piece of crap.
I've driven a 1954 Land Rover with a diesel engine that was way low on power and a frelled clutch so just getting the thing to move was an adventure. Oh and the tires were too big, so steering the thing on a more or less straight road was quite a bit of work. And don't get me started on parking the thing.
Oh, and I'm 6'4" so I was seriously cramped. We called that thing the gas chamber 'cause some of the exhaust fumes were getting into the car.Ah... good times.
how old was it? and when did it blow?I have one, my '02 Chevy Cavalier. The odometer doesn't work, the motor is burned out on the driver's side window, and the muffler is held on by a wire coat hanger.

Ahhh It happened sometime in 06. Maybe late summer? The reason it blew was because I had a water pump fail and the block warped. I tried to have it machined but they did a crappy job and the engine blew.
So it was the ultimate fault of the water pump.
