Hmm that's interesting, its like, we have all those things too but they just aren't for consumers, like the vehicle delivery stuff here is a thing but its not widely used and is typically for special occasions.

Some places are compact enough to be walkable for most things, usually in big cities but sometimes in suburbs we will have a shopping center of some sort that has all the basic needs really close but very rare for it to be in a suburb and reasonably walkable but still technically walkable. Kinds funny because I'm thinking about how perspective change a lot here, I know Columbia isn't in the us but I've seen some people migrate to Columbia and basically you just walk miles to get toyour things and occasionally order online but more often people have a address somewhere else and you just pick up your things yearly in some way and cars and bikes exist over there but basically only for traveling for vacation or something of the sort far away.

I've literally never seen something like that wheely car box before lol, that does seem pretty fun.

Just today actually I got in our truck to bring home a washer since ours broke yesterday, its actually kinda hit or miss if someone has access to a truck or van I think here people just mostly don't do things themselves and they just have companies fix stuff for them so a lot of us lazy Americans don't even really need big cars and if they also worked from home they may not even need a car at all if biking and ubering can get a few things, for the longest time we would borrow my grandpas truck occasionally but now my brother and my dad have trucks.

My brother has a super beefy truck meant for hauling things and we definitely HAUL lol we use his dump trailer so often for things now its hard to image not having it, just today I helped load it up with leaves and he dumped it at the dump, we used it to move furniture from my grandmas house across states because it would have cost stupid amounts of money to pay for this service, we use it to dump our own messes and other peoples messes too and if we didn't we would just not really have a clear avenue for getting rid of them because its big stuff that can't be put in trash and paying for a service to do it costs money which feels like it shouldn't but does, we can also load up the dump trailer with things to build our deck and we happen to live unusually close to a store that basically has all the things for anything basically so we just drive like 10 minutes and get all the things for projects and usually have to make multiple of these trips per project because nothing ever goes smoothly.

I guess it really just depends a lot, countryside is basically more like columbia and city is more like, well, we know cities lol and then there is steps in between depending on a city being more or less happening.
