However.

Getting the most out of your car would include not wearing it out.

180 miles x 5 days = 900 miles per week

900 miles x 4 weeks = 3,600 per month

3,600 x 12 months = 43,200 miles per year

3.5 hrs per day driving x 240 days = 840 hrs.

840 hrs. / 40 hr. work week = 21 weeks


^^^Wow. ^^^



Maybe you should consider moving closer to your job or find something closer to your present home.


Check this out.




Have a Great Day....

Man, that article was a real eye opener! I appreciate the new perspective. I have a lot to learn. I never really put all that commute time on paper and really looked at it. I knew it was a lot of time and I was always kind of afraid to do what you did and add it up like that. Thank you showing me what I am truly spending on this commute.
