He also presented an option, that he would drive in his car to my C182's
airport, then I fly dual from there to the primary training aiport, drop
him
there and then do my x-country or other things, then pick him up again and
take him to my plane's airport, from where he would drive back to the
training airport...ad nauseum....


I think you need to check to make sure both of your legs are still firmly
attached.

Your CFI can sign you off for unsupervised solo in the local area- up to
25NM radius of your home field, to the locations and under Wx conditions as
specified in the logbook endorsement. So you drive out to your home field,
fly to his base 18NM away, fly together, and then you go back home. You keep
your plane where you prefer and your CFI doesn't have to drive anywhere just
for you.

Guys, am I missing something here?

The local FBO SOP.

Where I rent, they require 60 days currency in an aircraft or go up with a
CFI for some touch and goes.

Time in a 182 counts for a 172 but not for a Piper and Piper time doesn't
count for any Cessna time for example.

FBOs often have more restrictive rules than the FAA.
