Optimizing a commute has a number of factors. High mpg is great until it isn’t. I’d first use and make notes about every single possible route. Far out of the way but always moving can trump “the fuel efficient route” (which is almost always the shortest) as one’s stress level is reduced.
Sure, time of day, etc, is great. So is stopping for a beer to let traffic dissipate. Shake off the negativity with some other folks, and leave it behind. Coming in the door after a bad work day and worse traffic is no way to greet the wife & children.
