  It’s not impossible. I had a 1.5 hour one-way commute to work at one point.

  I don’t drive one of the giant brotrucks that I see daily, those guys are absolutely fucked. Gas is $4 where I am, but I expect it over $5 by the time summer hits and those assholes with their 8mpg highway are going to be hurting

  I drive like… 200 miles every 2 weeks or so in total? I fill up once a month and at current prices that’s about $60 for my car

  It depends on the area, but it’s not uncommon to drive more than 30 or 40 miles a day for a work commute in California (especially if you’re trying to live in a cheaper area away from where the jobs are located).
