I use to drive 7 miles each way. But they laid me off expecting me to sit around on Unemployment waiting for them to call me back. Ha Ha! 51 days later I got me a new job. Now I drive 15 miles each way to a better job with a company that wants to send me back to School to update my electronics knowledge.
I wish I got 28 MPG highway. Right now I get about 20. We'll see what it is when I get the TCC fixed!

And wow 35 miles to and from? Or does that contain both?

That is one way. Total of 70 Miles a day. I've been doing this kind of commute for over 4 years.

I drive about 7 miles to work but because of the never ending road construction and 2 lane country roads with no legal passing zones, it can take anywhere from 15 - 40 minutes depending on road conditions. My Stang only has just under 16k on it and it will be 2 years old at the end of May.
