Gads, that's lot of mileage.....
I've always tried to organize my home/work/activities to minimize as much as possible the time/cost/mileage.
Whilst I love to drive, I've found there is a huge difference between having to drive and taking a pleasure drive.
By reducing my "have to drive" miles, I save a significant amount of cash, which I can then apply to "want to drive" or.... maybe another car....
