When you’re not driving your Camaro, are you riding the train to work? They just put in a train station 10 minutes from my house so now I’m wondering pros and cons of riding the train to work. It will take a little longer but I rarely use my car during the day anyway and it’ll save the miles.

If you are talking about DART, it sucks. Stops every 90 seconds, sits at the station for 90 seconds. Kids have torn up the trains. Keep a strong hold on anything you are carrying, someone will try to steal it just as the doors open at the less used stations. Depends on the line, good luck finding a seat. If you are going to DT Dallas, good luck even getting back on a train leaving in the afternoon. Parking at the lots sucks. And it is expensive.


On a positive side, you don't have to deal with Dallas drivers.

Mine would be Texrail. New cars. One down would be about a 6 block walk at the end.

The kids will have them torn up in 6 months. No respect.
