I assume that your family car is used for numerous other trips/travel/chores besides parental visits.
BTW, how long (time) is the trip from door to door from your home to parents' home when using walking - S-Bahn - train/bus -S-Bahn -walking mode?
You assume correctly. We also use it to get into the mountains for hikes and most places do not have public trans to get there. Not surprising with mountains around you.
It takes about 5 hours with s-bahn - train/bus - s-bahn option.
