I understand there will be some unpredictability, but several posters earlier in the thread concurred with the ~2.5 hour estimate. But hey, 2.5 or 3.5 it's still a) driveable and b) too far for a reliable short call (esp on probation) without an alternative plan. Thanks for the additional SA though.
