Parking
The city has had something of a parking crisis in recent years, even with restrictions which prohibit long-term parking (more than four hours) by nonresidents. The cost of using a parking garage is currently about $7 for the first hour. There is no parking tax, unlike New York City.
There's also not much nightlife (no doubt due to the convenient Path trains), so if you are willing to spring for a garage you're pretty much guaranteed of getting to park. The only exception might be during special events at Stevens University[?].
