Reply to comment by Gitopia in Metro Exploring Short-Term Fare Hikes And Long-Term Fare Overhauls by Maxcactus

Well, once upon a time ten years ago I bought a car for $3k. I didn’t live here at the time, but I’m still driving the car since I moved here. Feel free to compute.

I'm not even discrediting what you have done; I did the same and am grateful I don't have to buy a used car at today's prices. But bruh, be realistic in regard to others, all I'm suggesting.

My sole point is that the metro rates are too expensive and the system is not reliable enough. My experience has shown me that it’s reasonable for many in situations like mine to choose driving due to these factors. I don’t know anyone who is going out to buy a $10k used car to avoid riding the metro. Do you?
