Hello! My husband and I are considering a change and would like advice. We currently have two 2015 Mazda 3’s, one Vaseline and one grand touring, we pay $300/month on the baseline and $275/month on the grand touring (it was my husband’s dad’s car, we just took over payments). Insurance total for both of us is $187/mo.
We are considering getting rid of the baseline ($300 payment) and just having me take a Lyft to work. I work only about 6 miles from my home, an a non-discounted Lyft is $9, $11 with a 20% tip. I only go to work 3 days/wk. so it would come out to about $170/mo total. On paper, it saves us money, but I would like advice on it.
I plan to move to go to school and live and Boston in 18 months, and once we move we will be getting rid of both of our cars regardless.
