My commute is 5.6 miles each way but I'll offer my answer anyway. I wouldn't mind biking that distance, but there happens to be a mountain right in the middle of it, which would be grueling to say the least. As for an EV, I live in an apartment building, so even if I were able to build one somehow/somewhere I have no place to plug it in. Another suggestion would be public transportation, but there is no bus I could take that lands close to my work.

Edit: It is also very cold here in the winter, and it tends to snow, like right now for instance. I find that no matter how much I bundle up riding a bike becomes uncomfortable below about 35*F.
