I can get to work from my home in two ways -
Shortest Distance (entirely local roads)- 26 miles with less probability of a traffic jam, but with more traffic lights, stop signs etc. My car gets 27-28 mpg between fillups with this route.
or
Longer Distance - 43 miles - (38 interstate miles + 5 miles on local roads) - with slightly higher probability of traffic jams. My car gets 32-33 mpg between fillups with this route if there are no significant Stop and Go traffic.
The time for the commute is almost the same either option, which is about an hour or so.
So which is the more economical option?
Thanks for all answers.
