          If your going to a friend’s, you can either carpool, bike, get an Uber, walk or host. All of these are way cheaper than owning a car.

            I think they mean using it as an excuse to politely decline going to things you don’t want to go to.

            “Oh, you know I’d love to help your aunt Carol move her collection of antique furniture to her new fifth floor apartment in the August heat, but oooooh dang wouldn’t you know it, I don’t have a car to get there. Drat, sorry about that! Maybe another time, for sure!”
