Do two wheels count?
My daily ride, within a 7 - 8 radius of home, is a Chinese made cheap six speed bicycle with a basket on the front, which cost me about $US 100 ten years ago.
For further afield I have a 100cc 1997 Honda Dream motorcycle, an ex rental, which set me back about $US 550, also about ten years ago. It has done 210,000 km / 130,000 miles, and has a good few more left in it..... as long as I can find a US gallon of gasoline to fill the tank 105 miles or so. The fuel system objects to gasohol.
I can't see myself getting a car any time soon. I have rented a car on just three or four occasions over the past decade. I don't really need to own one.

Chastised by a pair of pernickety nerds......
The old chappie hangs his head in shame at not being effluent enough to participate meaningfully in this materialistic thread.
I logged in only to knock that ego down a bit, love.
The term, "[sic]," is to be placed within the quoted piece of material in order to both correctly quote the source material and show your audience that you do realize the original material was written with an error.
You do not place this term within your commentary.
Polluting, prickly, polite pedants.
"Effluent" for sure; on yer bike ya'll.
