Tim, would be one hell of a first leg from NM. But once you got here, the traffic drops off rapidly. Actually could use someone with lion taming experience during my commute. Pretty difficult to keep a full cup of coffee steady while wielding a whip to any effect in the other.

I drive 22.4 miles one way. Sometimes I think that it is too far but have been doing it for 12 yrs now. I guess it really isn't that bad.

around 24 miles each way, but it take an hour or more to do it because of traffic and when it rains 2 or more hours!

Come on now. LA traffic aint all that bad, I know I've been there during Rush hour.

Just stay off the 5, 405, 10, 101, 105, 110, 210, 710, 605 & the Pacific Coast Highway & you'll be just fine. I've even seen the 15 & 215 get jammed up.

You gotta love those KW's. I just sold my 98 T2000. I loved that truck I cried when I sold it.

You can say 30 feet if that makes you feel better. You better not count all the miles though.
I would actually say you work out of your home. My truck was my home for 3 years.
