My commute to CenturyLink is 1 mile. Last job I had was 35 miles one way. Got real tired of that!

Although I do enjoy the attention I get in my Monte (At times), I have since stop driving her to work. The time saved commuting is worth gold to me, since starting using my 6 (R6).

In my Monte, drive time would be around .45-1.50 hours for 20 miles.
On my 6, drive time is about 20 mins to 30 mins, not to mention the gas $$$ I have saved.

I drive about 2 miles each way to work. About 12 minutes in the morning 15 to 20 in the evening as there is more traffic. You might consider an efficiency apt. near the school or rent a room with a hot plate and fridge. No worries on the really bad weather days. Go home on weekends. Saves money on gas ,wear and tear on vehicles and preserves your Monte.

The town has 150 people in it so no apartment.

I had thought about the room, problem is I have animals I need to feed and take care of. I really appreciate yours and everyone else's thoughts.
