IMO, Cleveland isn't that hard to navigate, actually I think it's quite easy. Yes they have rush hour and if you're going in the wrong direction at the wrong time, it will take you longer to get there. BUT when I think of the insanity of LA freeways, or Chicago for that matter, there is just no comparison.To the current students:
I'm not a super experienced city driver, and I'm from CA so driving in snow scares me a bit. That being said, how easy is it to get the hang of driving in Cleveland?
Also, have you guys heard of anyone leasing a car rather than just purchasing a used one? I feel like it may be more expensive in the long run, but if anything happens to your car and you need to fix it, the leasing option lets you just get it fixed at the dealership....whereas fixing a used car may get to be pretty pricey. Any thoughts?
I've never been a fan of leasing cars because I'm too cheap. I think you're better off doing reseach and selecting a quality used car. With leasing you have mileage restrictions and get hammered if you drive too many miles. If you buy a good quality used car, you can hang onto it for many years, drive it til the wheels fall off and save yourself a bunch of money. If I'm paying a bunch for repairs, then I didn't do a good job of analysis on selection. Today, there are a lot of decent quality makes to choose from, the only problem is that with $4+ gas, used cars that get good mileage are going at a premium. Hope this helps, good luck and enjoy Case!
