There are hidden costs in driving alone to work every day, beyond parking and tolls. According to the American Automobile Association, it costs an average of 52 cents per mile to drive a car, this includes gasoline, oil, maintenance, tires, and depreciation.

If you had a 30-mile round-trip commute at 52 cents per mile:

Your daily commute cost would be $15.60
Your monthly commute cost would be $327.60
Your annual commute cost would be $3,931.20

This does not even include the cost of parking or tolls! Start saving today!
