Mike, that somehow doesn't surprise me in the least...
As for me, I have no problem driving long distances when needed, but there's no doubt that I'd rather fly, train, or bus it longer distances IF I won't need my car at all in and near my destination. In other words, why drive from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia for sightseeing when it's cheap and convenient to take Megabus, not to mention parking in Philly is atrocious? But if I needed to be in SUBURBAN Philly, then I'd drive. All depends on what you do at your destination city...
