    They will learn. LA has been ramping up their railway system and its not taking lanes away from the millions of drivers. In many cases, its faster & easier to take the rail. Its nice to see it

      At least Seattle is working to connect the light rail from the airport to the east side... in like 6 years [emoji12]

        That's a much better way to steer people into changing behavior, by making it better to do X not make it worse to drive

          I remember when they opened our rail system (MAX) to PDX. Being that I live by a MAX stop, and work fairly close to the airport, its handy when I can't/won't drive to work. Its just too bad it takes 2-3 times longer to get to work in the morning.

            That sucks. Does it run in the street or something? When I could use the light rail, it was faster than driving.

              The line I take runs parallel to the freeway I take, which is a straight shot to the airport. Issue is, I have to get off one line and wait for the next one to show up, which adds 10-15 minutes onto my trip. on a good day, it takes me 10 minutes to drive to work. on a bad day, 30-40. Same with driving home, but usually almost always 40ish minutes.

              But! theres also a bike path that runs next to the MAX line, so I can bike to work too.

                Someone buy my S52 E30 before i part it out. I might be getting a company truck, so 3 cars (not including my girlfriends rig) would be total over-kill! lol

                $8k and i'll remove some of the nice bits (mtech 2, startecs, e36 one touch windows).

                      Just tired of seeing it in my garage. No motivation to wrench on it. Plus I may be getting a work truck here shortly. So if that happens, I literally have no space. Something needs to go.

                                Thanks brotha. I appreciate the offer. Nothing's set in stone ATM, but I'll just keep it at my spot. Easier for me if I do decide to part it.
