The establishment vs Uber
#4
One other consideration I didn't expound upon. My first instinct for myself was to determine whether it would be cheaper to forgo owning a car altogether. Generally, in the USA (according to AAA), owning a car costs between 45 cents to 75 cents per mile depending on your choice of vehicle (assuming about 15,000) miles per year. Or, that is roughly $6,700 to $11,340 per year.

If you used an on demand car service for 600 trips (2 per day for 300 days), the break even point would be about $12-$20 per trip depending on your vehicle, and other factors such as if you would have garage rental at either end of the trip. Then again, if you were without a car you might consider biking for short distances on the nicer days, or using public transit where possible...
