*1105 PER CURIAM:

Francis Cárcamo (“Appellant”) brought suit pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against, inter alia, Miami-Dade County (“County”) claiming that the County violated her procedural due process rights. The district court granted the County’s motion to dismiss in a thorough opinion applying the analysis set out in Mathews v. Eldridge, 424 U.S. 319, 96 S.Ct. 893, 47 L.Ed.2d 18 (1976); we agree with the district court’s analysis, and adopt its opinion which has been published in 284 F.Supp.2d 1362 (S.D.Fla.2003).

Although we adopt the district court’s opinion, we address one argument asserted by Appellant which was not squarely addressed by the district court. Appellant argues that the County should have provided a post-deprivation administrative hearing rather than a post-deprivation tort action because the County acted pursuant to a policy or practice in impounding her car. The purported basis for her argument is an exception to the Parratt-Hud-son doctrine. 1

Under the Parratt-Hudson doctrine, a random and unauthorized deprivation does not violate procedural due process if the state provides an adequate post-deprivation remedy. See Zinermon v. Burch, 494 U.S. 113, 132, 110 S.Ct. 976, 987, 108 L.Ed.2d 100 (1990). Appellant argues that Parratt-Hudson does not apply here because the County acted pursuant to a “policy or practice,” and therefore its actions were not random and unauthorized. 2 She concedes that pre-deprivation process was not required here, 3 but argues that the County’s “policy or practice” requires it to provide her an administrative post-deprivation hearing rather than a tort action.

Appellant’s argument fails because Parratt-Hudson concerns whether post-deprivation remedies are acceptable, not whether a particular type of post-deprivation process is adequate. 4 She offers no reason why a state’s post-deprivation judicial proceeding satisfies due process in numerous cases comprising the ParrattHudson progeny, but does not in the in *1106 stant case. 5 Nor can we fathom any such reason, especially in light of the fact that the private interest at stake here is so lacking in weight, i.e., the purely monetary interest in the use of $208.20 for a brief period of time. We note that, as part of the Parratt-Hudson progeny, this court has held that a judicial post-deprivation cause of action satisfies due process when the private interest involved was much weightier. See McKinney v. Pate, 20 F.3d 1550, 1565 (11th Cir.1994) (en banc) (involving plaintiffs interest in employment); Lindsey v. Storey, 936 F.2d 554, 561 (11th Cir.1991) (involving retention of plaintiffs automobile itself, not just retention of roughly $200 for a brief time).

What Appellant seems to want is a free ticket to federal court, riding on the back of her “established state policy” theory, without applying the well-established Mathews v. Eldridge three-factor analysis. However, the Supreme Court has made it clear that procedural due process cases, including those in which the plaintiff seeks to avoid the Parrath-Hudson doctrine on the basis of an established state policy or practice, are governed by the three-factor analysis set out in Mathews v. Eldridge. See Zinermon, 494 U.S. at 127-39, 110 S.Ct. at 984-90. Thus, the district court correctly analyzed this case by employing the Mathews v. Eldridge analysis. As indicated above, we agree with, and adopt, the district court’s analysis.

Accordingly, the judgment of the district court is

AFFIRMED.

. Parratt v. Taylor, 451 U.S. 527, 541, 101 S.Ct. 1908, 1916, 68 L.Ed.2d 420 (1981); Hudson v. Palmer, 468 U.S. 517, 533, 104 S.Ct. 3194, 3203-04, 82 L.Ed.2d 393 (1984).

. Appellant seeks to take advantage of what she argues is an exception to the doctrine, i.e. when the deprivation results from an "established state policy.”

. In the instant case, the district court noted that Appellant has not alleged that a hearing could or should have been held before her car was towed or before she paid the fees to obtain the return of her vehicle. 284 F.Supp.2d at 1365 n.2. Nor has appellant argued otherwise in this appeal. Rather, she has repeatedly conceded that pre-deprivation process was not required.

. We also note that Appellant is mistaken to assume that the existence of a government "policy or practice" necessarily bars the application of Parratt-Hudson. Rather, post-deprivation remedies may be acceptable even in contexts involving a state policy or procedure. In Rittenhouse v. DeKalb County, 764 F.2d 1451 (11th Cir.1985), we concluded that "the rationale underlying the 'established state procedure’ exception is that where a deprivation occurs pursuant to an established state procedure, pre-deprivation process is ordinarily feasible.” Id. at 1455. Thus, the acceptability of post-deprivation process turns on the feasibility of pre-deprivation process, not the existence of a policy or practice. Rit-tenhouse demonstrates how the case law as of 1985 establishes this proposition. Subsequent case law is consistent. See Zinermon, 494 U.S. at 132, 110 S.Ct. at 987 ("[T]he reasoning of Parratt and Hudson emphasizes the state’s inability to provide predeprivation process[.]”); see also id. at 128, 110 S.Ct. at 985 ("Parratt and Hudson represent a special case of the general Mathews v. Eldridge analy *1106 sis, in which postdeprivation tort remedies are all the process that is due, simply because they are the only remedies the state could be expected to provide.”).

. In those cases, as in this case, a post-deprivation administrative hearing probably was possible.
