Even for runs to CostCo, public trans doesn't cut it. Cabs can work but they can also be more expensive and less flexible. And in SF, it would ruin my budget for a week to think about taking a cab across the Bay Bridge to Ikea or down the freeway to Target and it would be a huge struggle to get home with purchases on BART.
Then there are the runs over to the Marin Headlands or Muir Woods or wherever I want to take a quick trip out of the city for a few hours . . . .

a need in a City like San Francisco that is in that awkward state of being sort of dense enough to make owning a car a pain but also not dense enough for truely good transit
Seems like living in Toronto they have better transit options
