For regular trips, 4 is a good guideline, though it depends on the options/locations for flying. I spent a year driving just under 4 hrs to outside of DC, flew a couple of times. I've spent the last year driving 3:30, though there are no longer direct flights, so that's not a real option. For one-off trips, I've driven to Philly and northern NJ, which are 5-5:30.
