"4No, he's not correct anywhere I imagine.I live in NYC where he's talking about doing this. Specifically, I live near Bushwick, Brooklyn.I did the math just recently. My honda civic lease 3y/30k mi + insurance + gas + excess wear and rim and tire coverage was $401 a month. In the 3 years I never had to buy new tires I used roughly 23k miles so oil change every 7k miles that's like $200 in oil changes, so that's $5.50/Mo.Total monthly calculated from 3 years backward over estimating was $406.50My uber to and from work alone this month at off-peak times/ no surges only UberPool calculated underestimate (without any tips i gave calculated) is $500.Now, I'm planning on offsetting this by using my motorcycle and public transit during nicer weather. But saying ridesharing can replace a car is just straight-up wrong. Its been only 2 months are already buying groceries is tougher, traveling out of state is tougher, getting to and from work is mindless and comfortable, but it's less reliable time-wise. When I want to go snowboarding in Vermont its gonna be a car rental. All those difficulties im trading for "struggling to find street parking from 9pm-9am, driving through Manhatten."
