    I commute approx 1 hr each way (45 min on a good day) and spend about 2hrs in a car 5 days a week.

    I can't use public transportation because the state I live in simply does not have viable public transportation (michigan).

    The drive gets really old after a while and has really been starting to add up to a large financial commitment a month. I spend about 10-12 hrs of my week in a vehicle and have been doing about $70-80/week in gas, which adds up to about $300/mo.

    Major suck.
