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.

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.
