A horse and cart would do. Can’t see riding the horse and carrying groceries.

Ride over to your ami's, and then eat it for dinner. France used to be, and maybe still is, the US's largest market for horse meat.

Horses are more difficult and expensive to care for and feed than a small car.

(clip clop)

(Rusty snorting)

KRAMER: Y’aah!

(clip clop)

(Rusty farts)

MRS. ROSS: (sniffing) What is that?

MR. ROSS: I think it’s the horse.

MRS. ROSS: Oh, God.

KRAMER: Hey, how’s everything? You..you need anything?

MRS. ROSS: This is - this is...horrible.

MR. ROSS: Excuse me,...what do you feed this animal?

KRAMER: Oh, you know, oats and hay. You know, they like that stuff.

MRS. ROSS: I can’t take this. Let me out of this thing!

MR. ROSS: Turn this thing around. We’ve had it. We can’t breathe back here! And hurry it up!

KRAMER: Rusty! Rusty!

GEORGE: (whistling)

(clip clopping beginning in distance and growing discernibly louder)

KRAMER: Whoa!

GEORGE: Wha - what happened? What are you doing back so soon?

MR. ROSS: Ask Rusty.

KRAMER: I’m terribly sorry, Mr. Ross. One never knows how the gastrointestinal workings of the equine are going to function.

MRS. ROSS: Thanks for nothing! Come on, George. Let’s go upstairs.

GEORGE: What the hell happened?

KRAMER: The horse is gassy. Must have been the Beef-A-Reeno.

GEORGE: Beef-A-Reeno? You fed the horse Beef-A-Reeno?!

KRAMER: Well, I overbought!

Driving a horse is a tremendous amount of fun. I used to drive, years ago. The only trouble is that it really does take quite awhile to groom and harness a driving horse, then hitch him. You can’t just jump in and turn the key; the process is not going to take less than twenty minutes. At the end of the drive you have to unharness, cool the horse out, and clean both your cart/phaeton/whatever, and your harness. Also, it’s not much fun in the cold.
