Maybe you should buy a prepaid phone and just leave it in the car.
I don't need or want a cell-phone, but there is the odd time I'd like one, so I borrow one. I did have one for a while, but only used it twice in 4 months.

I also went without a Debit card for years. Those silly young ladies that work at the bank kept telling me "you can do that at the machine". I kept telling them, "when everyone does it at the machine, some of you won't have jobs anymore". Their eyes glazed over and they tuned me out. But now I go to the bank, and it's only two girls working there. Used to be 5.

I'd like to get rid of my Cable TV. Almost $60 a month, and with 70 channels, very little worth watching on TV.

And DVDs......more trouble with DVD players. Never had an issue with VHS. Now I just buy the $40 DVD players. They seem to last just as long as the more expensive ones I previously tried.

And back to Cobras, simplicity...that's why I like solid lifters and points ignition, and a manual transmission, although I did break down and put in a Pertronix Ignitor instead of the points.
