I lived for ten years without a car in Portland, and one of my favorite things about going to Tokyo is using their fantastic system.

If the Twin Cities' system were better, I wouldn't bother with a car, but as it is, large parts of the metro area and large chunks of the day are uncovered, and I live on what is supposedly one of the better bus lines.
