My college allows cars yet not that many freshman have them. Actually, there are quite a few upperclass who don’t have them. I have my car as a freshman and I enjoy the freedom of having my car. The biggest downfall is that people are always thinking that I’m their taxi. I’m not. I feel bad telling them no ALL THE TIME but I’m not putting miles and wear and tear on my car just because you want to go to the city or the mall… sorry. I almost never drive my car during the week and there are many weekends when it never comes out of the garage. I go home probably two weekends a month so I use it then and then alot of Friday evenings I go out and use my car. The other downfall is that it’s expensive. I think it was nearly $800 for parking. Granted you can get cheaper permits but they’re really far off campus… like you have to take a bus to your car.
