Hello, I have a new job and I have to commute from Philly to Harrisburg every week. I have to make this commute for 1 year. I have the following options:&#x200B;<br><br>* UBER/LIFT: I can get a lift or uber from Philly to Harrisburg. How safe does this look like to you? I can purchase a membership and use it daily. Any idea what membership would look like in terms of cost?&#x200B;<br><br>**PA TURNPIKE: I know there is a bus that runs alongside the PA Turnpike from Philly to Harrisburg. Anyone know the schedules and cost of the bus?**&#x200B;<br><br>* AMTRAK: Amtrak trains are available from Philly to Harrisburg but the journey is pretty long for a commute. Its cheaper when you book a month in advance but if you book tickets for a month they charge you around $600. Any idea how to get a monthly ticket from Philly to Harrisburg?&#x200B;<br><br>* BUS: Companies like OurBus, Flixbus, Peter Pan, Fullington, and Greyhound are available. Which is the best and safest. I read a review from OurBus saying the bus was late by 2 hrs and all the passengers were stranded for 2 hrs.&#x200B;<br><br>* RENT-A-CAR: I can drive instead of taking the train, bus, or ride sharing service. Which is the best way to get a car? I can rent from Enterprise, Hertz etc. Which is the safest and most expensive way to get a rental car or buy a car?&#x200B;<br><br>* BUY-A-CAR: I can buy a car to travel. I don't have a license, I am planning to get a license but I can get a car financed? I don't have a credit score since I am an immigrant and I have no time for buying and selling a car after a year.&#x200B;<br><br>What do you want me to do?<br><br>&#x200B;<br><br>&#x200B;<br><br>TIA
