This thread just saved me about $1,200 a year! 😀
The public transit system here in the Dallas, TX area is so complex and convoluted I could never figure it out. When I saw this thread and learned about the Public Transit option in Google Maps I did a quick check and found that there is an easy way to and from work. In the morning and evening I only have to walk about 10 minutes to and from the bus stop (makes for a nice daily walk).
When I did the math I found that I will save $100 a month in gas and parking by taking the bus. 😎
