    About 50 miles, some of it in traffic. If I can avoid sitting in traffic, I get about 20mpgs. If I get to sit in traffic, it's usually 18mpgs.

    I fill up on the weekends.

    7 mile round trip, I ride my bicycle in good weather. Wouldn't have it any other way, so much extra time in my day. My 7 year old truck has 54,000mi on it, most of which are from weekend adventures.

    roughly 25 miles a day, no hills or anything out of the ordinary in florida and I get around 15-17 MPG due to the K02's. I probably fill up once every week and a half.

    One place is 2.5 miles to work, the other is 30 miles to work. Depends on where I want to stay as to how far the drive is. Honestly, the taco is an ok commuter vehicle, but not great. For the vast majority of my 30 mile each way trips, I take my VW TDI, actually for the vast majority of trips period I take my TDI. I use the taco mainly for long trips where I have to get something that won't fit in the sportwagen

    Right now, I am driving 24 miles each way. Much of it is freeway, so I am averaging about 22 mpg. 45 minutes each way in typical traffic. That is about as far as I am willing to go. I fill up at Costco at 0630 on the way to the freeway, and I fill up once a week.

    I spent 25+ years driving from south Snohomish County into downtown Seattle, about 27 miles each way. I would leave at 0615 to 'beat the traffic' and it would still typically take me 60-90 minutes and up to two hours or more in problem traffic to get to the office. Same thing coming home. I recently got an offer to come back to my old company as a VP at $ 150K per year. But I would have to work in downtown Seattle five days a week. Where we are now, about 50 miles north of downtown Seattle, that would be a 100 mile roundtrip commute each business day, and I would be on the road in Seattle traffic for 4-5 hours per day. I decided to pass on it since life is too short, I plan to retire in five years and we just built our retirement home on an acre, so selling and moving in closer was not a viable option.

    My work commute is only about 4 miles round trip but I somehow manage to get like 2000 miles a month on my 16. I'm thankful for cheap gas.

    My 120 mile round trip a day is a hair under 2 hours total driving the speed limit or slightly under. The vast majority is interstate with about 10 miles of state highway & a few miles on major city streets. Not sure I could/would tolerate that type of traffic either even for a great offer.
