I'm a card-carrying cheapskate, but I'd save the $2000, ride the Trek and smell the roses for 18 minutes.
I unfortunately can't afford the extra 40 minutes of commute per day. I work 10 hours a day and have 3 kids that I only get to see for a few hours at night. I need that 40 more minutes with them. It's the difference between eating dinner with them or eating leftovers. I also like to spend money on bikes
