More than everything else, peace of mind. No worries about the condition and repairs and maintenance of a $40K hunk of metal and glass, or about accidents, injuries, insurance, parking, the idiot in the other lane, the price of gas, or anything else.

My bus comes at 7:45, la-di-da. :)

Eeek. Hadn't noticed the toxicity, but with 6,000 readers I suppose some have to be idiots. Have another :).
