      I mean if you want any old horse and can transport it you can often get them for free. They’re like pianos

        you can often get them for free

        The maintenance cost of a “free” horse is anything but

          Oh I’m not discounting that. Free pianos don’t tend to be cheap either to get tuned, and that’s if you can even tune them in the first place.

          Not in a way amenable to seal the deal a few cities across, unless you get a one way ride up there and you’re prepared to camp/hotel a few nights on the way back

            Isn’t that the point though. He’s replacing his car with a horse because apparently a horse makes more sense in this guy’s world.

            If after buying the horse you have to use a vehicle to transport it, doesn’t that invalidate the argument?

              I guess, we’d have to consult with the horse-pilled anon OP if he meant to replace absolutely all driving with horse riding, but I was assuming his take was mostly about day to day trips and not necessarily all trips.

              Don’t blame yourself, they just don’t teach horses in school anymore
