The New “What did you do with your Z today” (with off topic replies) XXXIV

JLarson · 01-21-2020, 11:25 AM

Yeah my 60 miles is about 2 hours of commute time daily. The drive in tends to be a little shorter than the drive home.

My daily commute is, wait for it, zero miles. The last 20 years before I retired, my commute was 10 miles per day, that's why my 1999 eclipse has only 44000 miles on it.

Bunk is right about traffic here though. I only get on the freeway if I absolutely have to. A 30 mile commute will take you 2 hours. That's why my car gets flatbedded to Seb for tune. He's 34 miles from me.

I live in a small town 30 miles south of Pittsburgh. The area is a mix of urban, rural, farm, mountain. The town dates all the back to the late 1600's. I got a corner lot that is 80x120ft. Brick ranch, 2000 sqft main floor, 2000 sqft basement. Before I retired. My commute to the power plant was 18 miles, all back country roads. Took me 20 minutes, unless I get stuck behind a school bus. Work now is 12 miles, 2 lane highway, unless I want to take the 4 lane toll road. Either way takes me less then 20 minutes.

My commute is 10 minutes each way, the only time it's longer is on the days I decide to drive the Z.

Gotta warm up all the fluids.

The funny thing is that I can be almost anywhere in the KC Metro area in about 20 to 30 minutes, depending on the time of day. That being said, the I-435 loop during rush hour is really bad, but not near as bad as traffic in the ATL all the time.

I've hit rush hour on I70 going into KC a time or 3. Really wasn't that bad.

Covering for Morgan, the stoner. He's off today.

Yeah I never could feel much of a difference between KC 'rush hour' and regular traffic.. and that's in a good way.

As opposed to Chicago, where 90/94 is standing still at 2am.

There's a bridge on westbound I70 through KC that's closed, so you would have to go north on I35 to 435 or north on I29 to 435 to get around it. It's kind of a challenge getting out of downtown after a concert, so we just hang out at one of the bars near the venue for dessert, then head home.
