    Say you have a 1000 app in Brooklyn and you are coming from NC. How much time do you account for traffic?

    Rough one there rickybobby. Some days I can go from the GWB to x20 on the BQE in 30 minutes and other days it can be 2 hours. Really depends on how stupid someone decides to be that particular day. Best advice is allow yourself 3 hours or go around 2am. Usually I'll leave my yard at 8:45am and most days get to Brooklyn around 10:30am. But I'm fighting traffic up to the GWB.

    I always add 2 hrs to get thru NYC and another 1hr to get thru Conneticut. Always avoiding rush hour if possible and it hasnt failed me yet.
