Here are the rules. You can drive any car you want as long as its black. No hypercars or anything in the 700k-1mil range. New 7 Series BMW, fine, ferrari 488gtb, fine, chevy corvair, fine, winnebago NOT FINE. The apartment can be furnished with anything you want but cant be above the 13th floor. No rooftop gardening.

Well I have a house and a car.... So I'm having a hard time choosing.
But Apartment will all the furniture I want is by far the best deal. You can't do shit with a car...

I'd get the apartment in a walkable area. Fuck the car. Especially if I can get whatever furniture I want. Gonna deck that kitchen out!

You didn't say in the OP that I couldn't drive at all if I picked the apartment. I already voted. That changes things because I like to travel. Maybe I would pick the car and then sell it and get a cheap car and house.

I couldn't care less how my car looked as long as it gets me from point a to b with no problems and with relatively low amounts of gas. Plus, all it takes is one jackass to wreck a car. All that means jack shit if you have no where to drive home to at the end of the day.

Car, duh.
I'd never live in an apartment, Too many people near by I'd have to interact with all the time, I'd have to worry about how high I turn up my music, And rent is a fools game, only an idiot would rent when they can buy.

Well to be fair though you don't need an apartment since you live at festivals anyway.

if the apartment can be furnished with whatever i want and its mine free and clear i would take the apartment, fill it with the absolute most expensive shit as furnishings - picassos and bidets and expensive ass steam showers in the bathrooms, top of the line kitchen, and expensive memorabilia everywhere, then sell all of that bullshit, and sell the apartment and go buy a place to live and a car to drive

Rule addendum: Your utilities are paid, your gas is paid, respectively; you have full coverage renters insurance for the apartment and full collision insurance for the car depending on what you choose.

Can you pick a nice $500,000 Lambo or Ferrari, sell it for $400,000...buy a $200,000 house outright & bank the other $200,000? If that's feasible, there's my answer.

You see the point of this thread is to see what your lifestyle preferences are. Basically you have to pick one or the other. If you choose STAL I want to see a more creative solution than what anybody would do.

Car. You can get a job with a car. An apartment just means you have a place to put the things you buy when you have a job. Have fun walking to work, using public transport, or not having a job at all, if you don't have a car. One month of having a car and a job, you will likely have enough for an apartment. One month of having an apartment, you probably won't be able to get a car. Not a good one anyway. Don't even get me started on doin thangs. Even the best city does not have everything.

If I take the car do I have to live in it?
I mean I have no desire to live in an apartment. I plan on buying a house on land with no nearby neighbors. If I can do that the car for sure.
If it's either you have to live in the car and have no home or live in the apartment no car the the apartment no question.

Can I deck the car out similarly to the apartment?
I'd rather have transportation. I don't really like big cities so I'd be stuck somewhere with no real public transportation system and absolutely fuck walking everywhere. I'd get like a limo hummer or something and deck it out in the center with all the necessities that can be removed and set up independently. I'd also throw a dual purpose bike on the back of it so I didn't have to drive the behemoth everywhere.
I pretty much refuse to live out of a car/rv, but if I literally had to make a choice, I'd choose the transportation.
--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

Do we have to live in the vehicle?
I'd probably go for the vehicle.
I'd get the longest/tallest new Ford Transit van.
They're sweet, you can customize them however you want, they're tall enough to stand up in and very spacious. I'm a carpenter so I would keep all of my tools in there and use it to work out of. They're great work vans.
If we had to live in the car I'd get a matching enclosed trailer. The van comes with power converters, but I'd probably put solar panels on top of it for extra power.
I'd mount a flatsceen on the wall, connect a PC to it, put a ceiling light in it, install a small ac/heater combo unit in it, a fold out bed, a small mini fridge, and a fold out desk/table and be set.
The more I think about it it actually seems pretty sweet.
