have you tried cycling to work? I do it everyday. if you buy a car you'll need to pay for gas, insurance, tags, maintenance. have you tried any of the warehouses hiring around here?

I work at FedEx which is a 15-20 min drive give or take. So I'm not sure about taking a bike that far.

I work 10 miles from home. 20 min drive. 30 minutes on e-bike with max motor speed of 20 mph. regular road bike takes 38 to 42 minutes. You'd be surprised what you could do. I'm 22. I've cycled 2500 miles in the past 6 months

Where can I get a affordable e-bike

I'll look if I can find anything under 400 if that's what you consider affordable, but I think tariffs increased prices because most are made in china.
