Two and a half hours of quiet, private cabin time. Take calls, review testimony, run through the deck — the trip becomes billable time, not dead time.

The difference is everything around it: getting to Penn Station, boarding on Amtrak's schedule, then a taxi from Albany-Rensselaer station across the river to your actual destination. A private car is one seat, door to door, on your schedule, and you can take calls and work the entire way.

A sedan comfortably fits 2 passengers with 2-3 suitcases. The Escalade SUV handles 4-5 passengers with full luggage. If you are relocating gear, files, or presentation materials for a legislative session, the SUV is the safer pick.
