You know, I crunched the numbers on those and I don't drive nearly enough to save the money in gas to warrant one - or even a small car for that matter. But if you do drive a lot I could see how it would add up. I am trying to drive less.
I wonder if you could agree to do that once to try it out to see how it works for you and the kids - do NOT commit to a whole summer of that - because on your end it gets harder for you to get them up early and then you have to go out of your way. Maybe he can keep them longer so there are not so many trips.
NEGOTIATE! You never get what is fair - you get what you negotiate. The whole thing - "how does this work for me" is definitely important!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would tell him that due to gas prices, you'll be more than willing to meet him HALF WAY between your places.
