Showing Original Post only (View all)How do DUers travel to work? [View all]
Just interested to find out how the majority of DUers get about. A poll like this can't be truly representative of how we're addressing the issues of pollution and transportation because so many other factors come into play, e.g., whether you live in an urban or rural area, the length of your commute, etc. But since these issues are oft discussed here it seems appropriate to find out how we're faring in reducing the carbon footprint.

LOVE my Prius C at 46-50 mpg and zippy car. Metro line too far away and it's 10 miles to office.
