When I worked in Emeryville I signed up on the parking waitlist for Concord BART (I lived in Pleasant Hill). 3 years later I've moved to Gilroy and I still haven't made it to the top of the list yet. The East Bay BART situation is bad.
Now I work in SJ and on the days I go in to the office I drive to Caltrain --> Diridon --> company shuttle. It's not terrible, except for the waiting. About 1:30 total commute time each way. With no traffic it's about 0:35 up 101 driving. Even with traffic it's only about 0:45 to drive back to Gilroy from SJ, but the morning commute is so ghastly it's better to take Caltrain.
I think the OP was saying that if you have options, Caltrain is probably low on your list. I would agree. It's not like NYC where you're essentially no more than 5 blocks from the nearest subway station.
