Thanks for all your kind replies. I'm about #9200 and looking at it, I'd be in the top 10 on the 320 in NYC.
My goal is to do 3 turns per week, which I could certainly hold. The question is whether the drive would just be too much. 1.5 hrs or under I'm ok with.
I mention northern NJ because I'd like to raise my kids as close to the ocean as possible. A guy can dream, can't he?
Thanks again for your input.
