if you make 10$ an HR it would take 1,000Hrs of work to have that car to use and not need to ride the bus.
if you make 20$ an HR it would take 500Hrs of work to have that car to use and not need to ride the bus.
if you make 40$ an Hr, it would take 250Hrs of work to have that car to use and not need to ride the bus...

So it would depend on how many Hrs you spend riding/waiting and the cost for the bus rides in a year as compared to how many Hrs of work you need to do to have that car, as to whether it's "worth" the extra wait and the bus riding and not having a car... and guess what, you would almost certainly still spend about the same amount of time driving your car/siting in traffic as you would have, getting there on the bus...
