I really don't know why I actually keep it. I don't tag it until I want to drive it. It has a rebuilt motor with less than 5000 miles so it's value is more to me than it would be to the next guy.
On a side note I keep getting these calls from some ,"affordable insurance" asking if they could lower my auto insurance rate and since they are of India accent I presume they are a scammer. So they ask if I have a car and I of course say yes. "Well, if I can lower your insurance rate would you be interested. "I don't carry insurance , it's too expensive". They always pause there. "well , so you drive without insurance". Me: "yes I'm a safe driver"

Haha. I guess there are a number of reasonable perspectives. Point taken.
In my defense, my parents are hoarders and their answer to everything is to put it in a shed and keep it, so I'm very sensitive about NOT becoming a hoarder. And my other advantage is that I live in the middle of a city, so on the rare occasions where I need a car I can walk to a rental car place and get one for $50 or so. It's way cheaper than keeping my own car.
