Faster, better, cheaper – pick two!

I don’t know who said it, but it’s an adage that holds true for many things.

So which do you pick? A faster, cheaper, or better commute?

As more and more cars pile on our roads, our commute gets slower and slower. We spend more and more of our precious time sitting in our metal boxes watching other people in their metal boxes do the exact same thing.

What about gas prices? Like an old steam train, it may be cheaper shovelling dollar bills into a furnace than sitting with the car idly burning gas. Burning money’s only fun on TV.

Stress? Is there anything more annoying than other people in their cars? “My commute is the nicest part of my day!” said no one ever. Just look at that guy sat over there, picking his nose while stuck in traffic, don’t you just want to punch him?

So pick two. Which do you take? Where’s the compromise gonna be?

How about not having to make a choice? Not having to compromise? You’re a good person, you work hard, why should you have to pick?

Unlike those magic weight loss pills that tell you that you can eat 10 burgers a day and still lose weight with no exercise and no side effects, Carma really does hit all three targets. Really. A faster, cheaper, better commute.

Yes, yes, you’ve heard it all before, right? Well, lets break it down…

Faster. Let’s start general, with the dream, the big idea. Every person that carpools is one less car on the road. Less cars mean less traffic. Less traffic means less time stuck in traffic. Yadda ,yadda, yadda! This is the 21st century, you want results right now, I get it. The dream’s nice but you want results now.

Ok, so how about tomorrow, instead of sitting in traffic, you leave those suckers to eat your dust! Carma lets you ride the HOV lane. Go on, do it, do it now! Fast enough for you?

Pow! One down, two to go.

Cheaper. Get someone else to pay for half your commute? Half price not good enough? How about 100% off your tolls? Carma’s partnered up to get your tolls refunded on selected roads. You could smoke a dollar bill every morning and still save money – just don’t do it in the car, that’s not polite.

Whew! Two done, lets knock out that third one.

Better. Your commute is already faster and cheaper, jees, what else do you want? How about social interaction? You know, talking, to people. It makes you happier, you know? And healthier. Not enough? How about more productive, more successful? Talk about football, moan about work, what ever, it’s good for you. Don’t believe me? Here, read this. You might just meet that next big contact. That networking you keep meaning to do? Easy, just carpool!

So three for three! What else you got? How about greener? Reducing your carbon footprint. Bam four for three, we’re just knocking them out the park, not even Babe Ruth had those kinda numbers!
