Having been to St. Augustine several times we figured we wouldn't bother driving around (since parking can be a problem) and would take the trolley. Tickets are expensive ($21/ppl for 3 days). And the way they know you have tickets to ride is they give you an Old Town Trolley sticker that you have to put on your shirt. Nothing says, "Hey, I'm a tourist" like a trolley sticker on your shirt. The ride was pleasant and the tourguide/driver was interesting. Our only complaint is they say the trolleys run every 15-20 minutes and we found it to be more like 30-35. We felt like we spent WAY too much time waiting for trolleys when the parking lots for most major attractions (Old Jail, Castillo, etc) were mostly empty.
I guess it would be good if you were a first-time visitor to St. Augustine, but if you're looking for just a way to get from one point to another, take your car.
