Maybe I’m just unlucky but whenever I try to use it it’s either fully booked and I can’t get a ride or the via driver is 20+ minutes late

For Costco that what we plan to do as well, or maybe even switch to BJ's? idk lol

tbh if we don't have a car and needed asian groceries, we will probably switch to services like Weee, or stock up some asian stuff on occasional weekends trips with a rental car

Not really, I make 250k a year so I certainly can afford that. But with very low utilization in JC,10k a year doesn't make sense anymore, that's why I posted this.

Now is the time to sell. People are paying more now than ever for cars

Turos a huge pita to run

I personally love having one for beach trips and the like. Your issue is you bought a car that is wayyyy too expensive. Just downgrade to a civic or accord and you won’t be “paying $10k a year in depreciation”

The dumbass bitch hitting the driver should get life. F*ck that assaulting a transit driver absolutely is a terrorist action. Just think if some hopped in that driver seat.
Let this happen on a bus I'm on and I'm beating the shit out of whoever is doing it. Absolutely wrong. Drivers SHOULD have mase and an emergency button to push. It's getting ridiculous.

Have you used VIA?

Yes yes yes. This is how we live now. My car was stolen and it took an ENORMOUS weight off me. You are living here, not the car.

No one offered this to me or let me know it was a thing, so happy to bring it up. It was a nice few years with no car or driving, but holy hell does it suck to have a very high deductible & monthly rates higher than 22 year olds

Respectfully, i didn’t ask for your advice on where to live. This isn’t about me.

If it’s because you work in Manhattan, There are plenty of cheaper places with easy access to the city. The Jersey City premium is about living in a city.

I’ll give you one guess

“To me the best part about living here is leaving on the weekends.”

So why do you live here?

Getting bikes might make the transition to car free life a little easier, and also save on the Uber budget. Jersey City has a growing network of bike lanes - biking has become safer and easier every year since I moved here.

We've been in Jersey City car free for three years and are now thinking of getting our first car. Reasons why we are getting it:

• Can buy more per grocery run
• Can go to further away grocery shops
• Can leave things like car seat in the car
• Can explore the rest of NJ and NY. Honestly exploring without a car is a real pain. I haven't been for a single hike.

You're perfectly allowed to sell the car then buy back again in the summer or next year. Me personally I think its worth having a car for the few trips away but I dont pay for parking.

Ah yes who doesn’t love soaking up the sun at the beach or going on a long hike and then ubering(if you can find a car) back to the train station that runs on a tight schedule, and then riding the train for an hour and then waiting for the path and/or lightrail while lugging all your beach gear?😍

Sounds like a fun and relaxing day! I bet it’s even more of a blast on weekends when the schedule sucks.

SELL SELL SELL!

There this growing wave of anti car people in the USA. Truth is, a car is such an incredible tool. Like anything else in the world, you need tools to match your lifestyle.

I’ll never trust a stranger to buy my groceries.

And I have my personal feelings on the shared economy….

Giving up my car is not in the cards for me.

Whatever you do, don’t use GetAround
