For a 5 day weekend 8 hours each way, for a 3 day weekend about 5.5 each way. I don't live really close to anything, it's an hour to Target, two for Trader Joes and two for a great BBQ place that's only open in the summer.
I drive seven and half hours one way fairly regularly as I'm in a long-distance relationship. Flying is an expensive hassle, getting significant blocks of time off are challenging due to the nature of my work and I enjoy driving, so for me to drive seven and half hours after working a nine to ten hour day is a no-brainer. Just did it Super Bowl weekend (worked Saturday, spent Sunday through Tuesday with my S.O. then drove back Wednesday to be back at work at six a.m. Thursday morning). It's also far less stressful for me if I get stuck at work (this is a frequent occurrence) to *not* have to worry about missing a flight. If I'm driving, I get to my destination when I get there and stop as often as wanted or needed.
