Takes all of 5 minutes to start a car and drive a mile and back. Nobody walks into a Costco for just eggs or brings the entire family.

I get that you all hate cars but when you make up fantasy stories like this you just harden mind of those you must convince.

There's no reason you should need to drive for that kind of stuff. Sure, it takes 5 minutes, but it's worse for your health, the environment, your wallet, and your morale.

I never said you should. Only that the above in no way describes the majority experience. It's really not that stressful in the least bit. It's a 10 minute experience with an extra wide parking spot for your f150 at one of the dozens of choices you'll have to grab your eggs.

I am particularly lucky in that I could go to Wegmans or one of several farms within that 10 minute time frame.
