Question Of The Week: How Far Would You Drive For A Date?

You are out one weekend at a Sports Bar and you met a really interesting guy.  You establish that he is dating/relationship material.  In conversation you find out he lives out of town and drove up to visit friends for the weekend.  His trip time by car is about two and a half hours.  You both agree to exchange numbers and go from there.  After a couple of weeks of conversations he invites you to his town for a date.  Money is tight and gas is expensive, so what to do?

If you are interested in a guy; how far would you be willing to drive to date him?
