Wondering about what everyone's commute to Work/School is like. The scenario for me is as follows,

 

 

Question for you guys.

I potentially have the chance at a promotion but it would extend my daily commute to work from 40 mins to 60-70mins depending on traffic. I get a 10k bump annually with a Company car and a company Gas card.

I can drop my Car insurance and sell my personal vehicle (2013 Avenger) for about 5k.

How many of you would say Yes to that kind of situation?

10k bump in pay with employee car and gas card abilities? Those are all nice however don't look at your 10k bump in actual terms. You have to take into consideration the actual increase in your earnings and decide if that justifies the additional time. 

On face value I'd take it however it's not something that I would decide until I ran those numbers and understood the restrictions on the company car. 10k is 10k but a lot more goes into deciding to take new positions than dollar signs.
