Never used park & ride because I have an express bus right outside my house. The volatility did not come from excess passenger volume, though. The bus mostly arrived at my house on time. It’s from constant Lincoln tunnel issues (disabled vehicles blocking tubes, car accidents inside tunnel, police activity), and I doubt park & ride would avoid it unless they have a secret route that bypasses backups at the tunnel. This hits you both ways. Also note that there is no express bus lane coming out of port authority in the evening.
I recently switched to a downtown commute, and it is far less volatile.
