When I was at Comair and DTW-based, I could sit long-call reserve at home. If it was short-call, I had a crash-pad.
The call out time is two hours in CLT and DAY. Is your drive two hours in non-rush hour traffic or rush hour traffic? As a line holder, your drive isn't going to be a factor as there is no requirement to live in domicile. Living toward the coast, you could drive or jumpseat. I did that as a line-holder in DTW.
