I used to take public transportation that took 2 hours each way to get to my job. Then I bought my first car for $500. It was such great freedom.

Then, years later, I moved to the city and was able to get rid of my car. It was great freedom.

Then, years later, I got married and had a child. We bought and owned two cars. It was great freedom.

I can kind of relate to it however in my opinion being able to solely rely on public transportation in the city is still the best kind of freedom.
