-The Bay Area, north of SF, California
-Hybrid, approx 45miles per gallon, wife drops me off (we only have one car for now) and does errands, taking our child to the gym, music classes, etc.
-2.5 miles, thru a lot of hills.
-7 minutes by car, one way. Wife is a SAHM. Thinking of riding a bike or buying a scooter -- I'm leaning toward a scooter because there are alot of hills in the commute; not sure what to do when it rains. We shall see.
When we lived in Philly, I walked to work (about 5 blocks) and loved every minute of it -- really appreciated saving a lot of commute time. For us, time (with family) is the most important factor. Saving money on gas is a plus.
