I very rarely pay more than around $10/day for off-site parking at any of several lots that are an easy walk from the terminal or the light rail station

that said, Uber/Lyft from Magnolia was close to $80 on Tues afternoon

I think this will fall into the “It depends” category … those who can ride w friends or family to/from the suburban stations might be more likely to use the light rail than those who need to call a Lyft or an Uber anyway
