My ride is a Trek 7100fx and it has served me well.
I agree with bbattle. The seat/handlebars are adjustable, so you can set it how you like. After a little adjustment, the saddle a touch higher than the handlebars, my bike feels a good fit. That said, I'm not really that hunched over.
I've ridden 3 metric centeries on mine ( & I'm trying for another one this morning), so 4 miles should be no problem.
Also added on are a rear rack & some bar ends (with some comfy padding) on mine. I recommend bar-ends, as they provide another hand position & help give more power on hill climbs.
Oh, and they're handy for carrying shopping bags too!
