I agree with all of what's described there...
Having a car in Bogota is silly:
Traffic is awful and there's a regulation for non-electric cars that forbids using them during certain days of the week according to the plate's number... they said it's to reduce the carbon footprint but the reality is that there are so many cars that it would impossible for everyone to use their cars at the same time. I'm using Uber for taxis, sometimes I just get a cab if it's there's one waiting on the street. There's Uber comfort as well if you want to get fancy. I don't mind status.
Compared to Argentina, Colombia is 'capitalist':
We have Pricesmart, Ikea, H&M, Papa Johns, etc. Supermarkets are top notch with lots of imported products and cheap and fresh vegies, 1 kilo of tomatoes is less than a dollar. But some things are very expensive, specially red meat.
The problem with Bogota is... Bogota:
The urban planning is awful, city is not walkable and except the historic area there's no beautiful architecture... mostly just buildings. In that aspect BA beats by far.
