Light Rail Testing

Posted by Justin McHood on June 24th, 2008

I spent my morning drive from Southeast Chandler to Tempe thinking about the price of gas. FOUR BUCKS A GALLON ADDS UP TO A LOT OF MONEY! I was thinking about all of the different strategies I could use to get better mileage as I was pulling up to the office — and it dawned on me.

Actually, it drove by me.

Light rail is coming to town!

I am no expert, but it seems like this might be a great solution to my 4-bucks-a-gallon-and-35-miles-to-work problem.

    @Nick — why is it that as I was watching this thing go by, I immediately thought of Rail Life? Mindshare! Top of mind awareness. Your brand is way out in front. It will be fun to watch.

    On a related note — the IRS just announced an increase for your business mileage deduction. It is now 58.5 cents per mile up from 50.5 cents per mile. Wooo Hooo! Typically the government only makes one rate adjustment per year but with the rising prices of gasoline, the IRS has made this unexpected adjustment.
