My limited experience with public transit is that it is a lot harder to do bulk purchases, keep groups together, or both.

This is the real challenge. My approach has been biking to what I can and going single small and efficient car when it's viable. It's better than what a lot of people manage with kids, and marketing has convinced a lot of parents that they need a gigantic 3-row SUV that struggles to achieve 20mpg
