There are many ways I can get to work in the mornings. However, most of the shorter ways are stop and go traffic and take about 30 - 35 minutes. There is another way, taking the back roads, that gets me to the freeway and I can jam to work in about 22 minutes. No traffic, high speeds, much more convenient. The problem? About 8 extra miles, one way. It's really adding up on the odometer. I already have 6500 miles on the 01 LX that I've had only since August 1. (Total miles one way - 21 the long way, 13 the shorter ways.)
Question: Should I keep going the quicker, longer route, or should I start conserving mileage and going the shorter, more wear and tear way? I think I know the answer to this one, but I just want to hear your ideas. Thanks!
