Frontrunner

During the Christmas holiday, it was my pleasure to take a beautiful date with me up to see the lights at temple square.  Because of the long distance drive to temple square and back we decided that it would be a good idea to ride on the newly designed Frontrunner.  The cost to ride Frontrunner from Provo to Temple Square cost approximately twelve dollars per person.  That’s twenty four dollars for two passengers round trip.  Now if I were to put twenty four dollars’ worth of fuel into my car, I would be able to drive just over 300 miles.  Since it is only about 100 miles to drive a round trip to Salt Lake City and back, Front Runner was not a cost effective way for me to travel to Temple Square and back.  In addition, it was about thirty minutes slower than if would be to drive.
On the flip side of the coin, the Frontrunner is a very luxurious.  It was a smooth ride and it eliminates having to drive on the same road as morons.  Another convenient thing was that we did not have to find parking or pay to park in some garage.  After all things considered, I do not think it was a good idea if you are taking a group of people or if you plan on spending time in an area where you would have to pay for parking.
