I'm a Miami commuter for the moment and I know the ins and outs of this system as I guess I'm in the minority of Miami commuters who actually try and use mass transit.
Tri-rail is strictly a commuter train and is not an intercity train. Except for West Palm Beach all the train stations are just outside the main corridors of major cities, along I-95. You'll need to take a bus, shuttle, rideshare or taxi into the city center. Miami has it far worse as Tri-rail doesn't follow the I-95 corridor and heads west to Hialeah. Basically dropping you off into a train yard where you then have to take the metrorail into the city of Miami.
Brightline is another attempt at creating real intercity rail. A few stops at major cities. There is parking but it is not commuter park and ride.
Btw, I don't own a car. I use mass transit, rideshare, and care hire. In South Florida I'm a bit of an anomaly.
