So, $400 a month, assuming one uses this to commute? That sounds like quite a bit more than gas + parking for most people. Especially if it's a 4 cylinder with good mileage.

That's very normal in a lot of places. If I commuted daily into Boston from the western suburbs where I live (I don't actually work in the city), I'd be $380 for a monthly rail pass, another $60 or so for daily parking, and another $75/month if I needed to use the subway to get from the train station to an office.

well in the UK the commute from my town to London (about 65 miles) is over $600
