Sure you need to own a vehicle to live outside of a city so it’s a cost you have to incur, but you have to incur much more costs the more you use it.
The maintenance is part of the cost per km. Almost every aspect of maintenance is directly related to how much the vehicle is used, and idk about you but after a considerable amount of km I spend more on maintenance than on fuel. And there is of course the cost of the vehicle itself, which also deteriorates as you accumulate kilometers.
