> my options now are either buy a car, pay insurance, maintenance etc. north $1,500/mo for the convenience

Huh? Decent car payment at $300-500/month, insurance at $200/month, and I'm wondering what $1,000/month of car "maintenance" looks like, considering $250/month will get you a full tank of a gas a week.

parking is another $200.

not to mention the tolls.

my point is, ~$1500 is grocery for a month for us. why would i spend that much on just a car?
