Who knows, maybe they feel that the parks are too crowded and very difficult to manage, specially magic kingdom. Simple solution is to increase the prices so that the people that can actually afford it can enjoy it more.
I drove from spokane, Washington. it was almost 3000 miles, about two weeks before i left i met a guy that said it usually took him 6 days but i made it in 4 :)
I feel the same way, and the funny thing is me and my wife pretty much have the exact same conversation lol, getting there isn't to bad its getting back to your car thats such a pain.
