Mostly for commuting to work (56 miles round trip). And an occasional weekend trip. Will have to see how short trips with two of us in it work, before planning long trips.

My round trip to work is 190 miles. I plan I seeing a return of investment in a little over a year.

How about this, take the summer off and avoid all highways. 9500 miles

Thanks for sharing your adventure ride ideas.

I'm retired, so no more commute...but when I have to drive 10 miles to pick up a part for a broken sprinkler pipe, I won't have to go in the big F-350 anymore...a gallon and a half of diesel down the hatch for a 50 cent part it ludicrous.
Beyond that, I'm hoping to take her on long rides thru the countryside like a buddy of mine does with his Harley, and I love the idea of a 4-7 day road trip. I'm getting too old to camp in a tent/on the ground, so I might have to do some motel 6/Comfort Inn stops...usually we take the RV. Would love it if DW went with me on some of those trips, but would ALSO love it if she just said "too cramped in that back seat...go by yourself" sometimes. I used to travel for work about 50-70% of the time...retired early so I wouldn't have to be away from home so much, but finding that some time away once in a while might actually be a good thing.

Back and forth to and from Work and Elsewhere.
Work Only has always been between 100 to 120 Miles a day. 500 to 600 Miles a Week.
Then Wherever Else I would decide to go Whenever. Which could add from 2 Miles a Day to another 100 Miles a Week.

Pretty good haul! I'm 84 miles round trip to and from work. Ever sit down and figure out your hypothetical gas savings per year? Should be significant!
