I’ll miss my 50k + 0.5k a month of various insurance/fees/repairs so much
Hands down the best mode of transport to lose money

Or even a plane. Let someone else monitor the autopilot for you.

So you live at the combined bus/train station and work at another bus/train station with a direct link - that’s cool.

If you live an 8 hour drive away from your job I think that’s a bigger problem than focusing on the lack of last mile transportation in the US 😳
I genuinely do, actually.
I live quite near an intersection with bus stops, tram stops, AND underground metro train stops. (Sörnäinen, Helsinki)
My work is in (Pasila, Helsinki) which has literally an intercity train station, and also tram stops and bus stops.

When I started my current job I was I switched to cars because of this. While my home town was great in terms of PT and I had a bus stop next to the house, where I worked I would have had to walk 20 minutes - about as long as my complete car commute.
Then last summer I re-ran the numbers taking into account the advent of e-scooters. I could now get to work about as fast as by car but so much more comfortable. I absolutely loved it and reignited my love for PT.

Found the person that never left the suburban house they paid 2000000$ for in the middle of nowhere. With reasonable high density housing it is absolutely possible to live within walking distance of a bus or even subway stop.

Maybe new Toronto mayor will fix it? Or move to Vancouver I guess…

I don’t think that’ll make a difference. I think Canada is the only G7 country without any high speed rail?

Not at all. I almost always have a couple beers when I take the train.

That should say comma.ai and the Comma3 device. Dunno why the link doesn’t show.
