Not when comparing to dtb's taxi riding "excess." As a good Manhattanite, I don't think dtb owns a car. It's a rational choice, in your case, but you could also live in such a way that makes the car unnecessary (perhaps not where you live, but in a general sense - I could not function without a car where I live, but I could if I both changed jobs and moved into the city proper).
