Our cargo bike cost 5k€. It basically replaces the car for day to day. Commute, groceries, daycare run. We only use the car for longer trips or the odd airport pick up run.
It’s always something with a 20 year old car. Tires, brakes, fluid changes, oh the radiator is leaking, oh a sway bar link broke, oh I destroyed a tire on a pothole, oh I will try in vain to sus out that error code again.
My car costed less than 6k. But yeah 1-2k on maintainence, $1200 insurance and probably 2k on gas every year. E-bikes looking very interesting.

What do you spend 1k a year on maintenance on?
