Honestly if I could get by without a car I totally would and just do a weekend/weeklong/etc rental for the times I want to get out of town though geocaching is a hobby for the spouse and by association me as I like to go along so owning probably wins out over renting.
Right now it has been nice to have the car as life has said time to move (and the wife is Canadian and wants to go back north) so actually having the car has been great. We are just over an hour drive from home while it gets prepped and even closer to the border for searching up there for a new place.
