Should I change jobs?

I'm late 50s and have been at my present position for 25 years. I'm eligible for a pension which would pay me 60% of my income. I've been offered a similar job at another employer 85 miles from home which would pay me 75% of my present income. So I could "retire" and take a new job for a 35% raise, but I'd have this crazy commute to negotiate; after I figure driving costs and, maybe, a cheap studio for during the week, I'm not sure how much more I'd end up with. (The current "commute," by the way, is a 6 block walk). The new challenges of a new job could be invigorating, but learning to negotiate the new politics could be a real hassle. Total retirement isn't an option for about 5 more years. What would you do?
