Just had to look this up today to win a debate with a co-worker.
15-16 miles (1-1.5 hour of driving), I have two road choices at one point and it is a flip of the coin which is faster everyday.

Just looked, geez a lot of you have very little commute, I am jealous.

17 miles, ~ 15 minutes. **** yeah, high Alabama speed limits and no traffic.

Thanks for the replies, comments, and poll responses all! Looks about what I was expected - seems the breakpoints were perfect - almost a proportional spread.

And yep - I do (now) envy the short commuters... I've stocked up on A LOT of audiobooks. Mebbe I'll restart that SAT radio subscription...

I only get 17.8 MPG cuz I drive up and down the freeway ramp everyday to work. I live like 10-15 minutes away on the span of 8 miles.

This includes turning on the car and backing out the driveway.

17 miles, 30-40 minutes. I love my commute. All side streets with lots of views, changes in elevation, turns, 50-60 mph speed limits. That's why I drive my Z everyday. It relieves stress on the drive home.

4 miles less than 10 minutes

That's awesome. I think my ideal commute would be ~30 minutes or so of winding, picturesque country roads.

But instead I am in pretty ridiculous DC-Metro traffic. The 5.0 definitely accelerates quicker to 5 mph than the Z did. But I feel like the Z has the advantage because it takes up less space when you are gridlocked in the center of an intersection. :icon17:

55mi one way for the last 3.5 years.. Just hired into a new job which is 1mi from my house.

Winning.

Maybe I'll get a moped and take that into work every now and then. ;)

33 miles each way for me. Morning commute takes around 30 minutes, evening closer to 45 minutes. They are supposedly going to build a toll road which would cut down on my mileage and time considerably but they are still debating the path the road will take.

35 miles (one way), but my Z is not a daily driver. I rarely take it to work.
