You just nailed exactly why I also drive the one day a week I have to go into my office in soho from Easton. I work 7-3 so I leave at 5am so no rush hour traffic, it takes 60-90 minutes and costs about $60 - $42 to park, $6 for the Henry Hudson toll total, and 5ish gallons of gas. If I took mnr it’s 15 min drive to the train station, an 80-90 minute train ride, 15 on the subway plus any waiting around time. Cost is $36 for round trip off peak, $6.50 to park at the station and $5.75 round trip subway. So for basically the cost of gas a week I get a seat, my own music, and the ability to stop anywhere or anytime I want/need and save myself 1-2 hours or my time.
