Good thing the bike has low ongoing costs compared to a car: no fuel, insurance, and low maintenance costs.

Over a year, a car costs thousands just to operate.

Plus you're comparing a brand new bike, which will go with little maintenance for years, to a cheap car, which will break down next month.

It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.
