I have got some work to do here!
Background, grew up low income/cars often broke down/had to pawn things/borrow money to get cars fixed (The parents did). It was not uncommon to drive somewhere and the vehicle would break down, my non-mechanic father couldn't fix and we would have to borrow money to get vehicle fixed... AND, I've always lived somewhere that you had to have a vehicle for 90% of the time... all of that out of the way, we have five vehicles in front of our small home, for four people.
My "old beater" that I drove for many years (I joke that it put both girls through college since I drove it around and didn't have a car payment).
The vehicle we used to replace the old family hauler once we drove the doors off of it (Bought it new, paid it off early, drove it to the point it was falling apart [chevy min-van with the WORST build quality...]).
Wife has her "lifetime vehicle/truck" that she is wiling to work a job to have/pay for (and I've come to terms with...).
Kid has a car and is home for college (she goes 3 hours away). This is a super cheap Yaris that's great on gas/safe so it fits on many levels. We keep my old beater as a back up for this/her (see background above... lots of need for security around vehicles/transportation, yes, even though I walk/ride a big A LOT, and UBER/LYFT is a thing, and we can walk to rental car places... this is not a logical thing, it's emotional, and something to work on/through, even with that said, the IRP and it's IRP offshoot, the ICP are gonna have a field day with this... :) )
AND, lastly, the old man (we moved him in with us to give him a place to stay/get healthy....) has his "life" stored/in a van outside, doesn't technically "count" against me/us but it's in front of our home so... I included it, it makes an impact on us though because we HATE having so many vehicles out there/the congestion it causes neighbors (it's not that bad but we are sympathetic...) and we considered widening the driveway just to get a couple of them off the road.. CRINGE!!!
So, we have too many vehicles, spend too much on insurance, pay too much for upkeep and registration/taxes etc. and it has ZERO impact on our savings rate/finances other than to reduce our impact on the area/street/environment or to free up some dollars that would go into another savings of some kind/dropping them won't increase our financial picture (it is solid..) so for now, I simply grin and bear it.
Future footprint:
Kid moves out and takes her vehicle with her.
Old man moves, his van is gone.
I donate beater to local PBS Station.
Even longer term:
Get rid of everything but wife's truck, bike/walk/rent/uber everywhere or move to a denser area where no vehicles are needed.
So, there is a path... there is a path...
