I 'rented' a car through relayrides to get up to a family affair in the N suburbs, but I'm drawing a blank on what else I should try to get done while I have it (besides drive to the things I'd normally bike or transit to.)
So-- for you carfree folks-- what would be your top priority to get done if you had use of a car for a weekend?

Construction, interior decoration, remodeling (again construction) and yeah, bulk shopping.
This weekend I would go to Schaumburg and see the Hobby show, too far to bike and no public transportation avail. Wish it was still in Rosemont convention center.
I think the only reason we ever rent or borrow a car is if we leave town for the weekend for somewhere like Southwest Michigan. So in reverse, if I randomly had a car for a weekend, I might consider taking advantage of a short getaway. Check out VRBO or airbnb for beachfront places around somewhere like South Haven. You can't get to the good spots by train (sadly). It may be too cold to swim, but it's always great to just sit on a porch on the lake.
Actually I had to peruse the internets when I got home to figure out how to turn -off- the heater.

Leave it parked until I need it.
