I don't cross creeks to play; I cross to get to the house on the other side.

"I'll bet you haul something once a year."
You would win. Also if you said twice, 3,....

You would lose if you said 150 times a year, or "only once".

"you could borrow or hire someone to do it for you."

Well, I could hire somebody to grade my driveway, or I can shovel base rock into the truck and repair it by hand.
Which way makes less CO2? Remember, somebody has to bring that cat from somewhere else, on a big truck.

"You should be driving a lot less anyway."
Yup... one tank/month; 90% decrease. Requires discipline; takes talking yourself out of unnecessay trips.

"You don't need to haul all that stuff"
No, you don't need to haul all that stuff. My back yard is a lot bigger than yours. I do need to do it.
