Morning everyone. Today's QOTD is a hypothetical inspired by @SinisterBulb . This is my town. Imagine you had to commute 2hrs a day in this. What is your ideal commuter car?

To make it a little more difficult, let's say you work at one of our many big oil and gas firms so an EV is not an option.

@Basmitharts @SinisterBulb I would get a different job or work from home.

@SinisterBulb @Mark @Basmitharts Yeah, this is the kind of situation that makes people hate cars and driving. Yet for many it’s reality.

@julkinen @SinisterBulb @Mark @Basmitharts yeah it's very much my reality, often 200 miles/day around the M25/south east of england. Hate job, hate driving, but 'get a different job' easier said than done with ££££ cost of living and other personal circumstances.

@SinisterBulb @Mark @Basmitharts @artisanloaf Yeah, my office is 50 miles away but that 100 mile roundtrip is on mostly empty roads. Definitely helps.
