Depends how much you value your free time. I used to enjoy driving, but traffic really became super bad for my route starting around 2015ish. I had to give up my very fun manual transmission car because I spent my entire commute stepping on the clutch pedal and my leg was just sore at the end of the day. Eventually even though the commuter rail was slightly more time, I realized I could read a book, listen to a podcast or browse Reddit for a couple hours a day during my commute. I got home relaxed and ready to get on with my evening and I never went back to driving, even during the pandemic.
