That's a great summary...and makes the decision pretty easy. The more I've read on these forums, the more I realize that commuting + reserve = misery.

Thanks, folks, for your considered opinions. The fact that it's unanimous makes the decision a no-brainer. The Bro it is. Admittedly I was kinda hoping for the jet (I just got my SIC type on a Challenger 300, which was the most entertainment I've had in years)...but commuting to reserve sounds like an idiotic decision to make.

Thanks again
