Have a friend drive you? Take a taxi? Iono, what's the car worth to you? A $100 taxi ride?

Seriously.. there have to be options. Friend. Taxi. Shuttle. Bus. Think about it... if it costs $20-100 for a taxi or shuttle, how does that compare to your insurance deductible if something happens to your car while your gone? And how much is the peace of mind worth to you while you're away?

Just get a ride. 2 weeks parking rate is going to run you 100+ $ anyway.
