When things are free, people will come. Not really free though, taxpayer supported.

no, when its the best option available people will use it

nobody is going to ride the bus if it comes every 30-60 minutes and is constantly stuck in traffic, even if its free

Yup. It's why I never use the Pulse outside of commuting hours, but moreso about frequency.

I thought about taking it to a spot about two miles from Scott's and the arrival time went from 15 minutes to 30 to none at all. Last time I try that.

If local restaurants offered free meals they would be a surprise success as well.

Pulse has been dope since it first launched.

I’ll take a 3.00 round trip over gas, insurance and maintenance any day of the week.
