His excuses, gas mileage, the long drives, him jumping the gun, ALL SOUNDS LIKE HE'S TAKING YOU FOR A LONG HAUL.
DH drives to work everyday 45minutes. Sometimes longer in a traffic jam. If he really wanted to come home, he can, but obviously he sounds like there's more to the 'meetings' he's not about to open up to you, and he doesn't want you being insecure about it. You have every right to be paranoid, I'd keep my eyes and ears wide open.
During the early years of marriage, husbands stray like dogs, until they know how serious their marriage are, that they finally start behaving like mature people. DH was like that during our first WEEK of marriage. I had dinner waiting for him at home, and he stopped at a bar. He came home later, and I scolded him. I told him, he either have to let me know where he's going, and how long he'll be gone, so I know I have dinner waiting. If he did it again, then he better not bother coming home. He's prompt but I understand if he needs to stay longer at work because of meetings.
It will drive you nuts if you're suspicious at every little thing he does, but sometimes, your hunches is as good as any, and sometimes it will be awhile when you found out you're feelings came true. That's why I'd just keep my ears and eyes wide open, and keep them to yourself. Keep track, collect evidence just incase you need to use them.
There are alot of guys who married someone hot, but there are also those who continue to go to strippers w/their buddies. So, what's up with that? Doesn't mean anything. If they want to act like dogs, they can, what's stopping them? Kids and hot wife? They do what they want to do. Period.

Sweetie, the one thing about feelings is that they just are.
