How many miles are you averaging a month?

just realized i never drive my car

after picking up the car 7/30/00 and having 32.6K on the clock, i'm only averaging about 758 miles a month

189.5 miles a week

hey at least it'll pay off in maintaining residual value

Mine turns TWO next month and I only have 17,500 on it right now.
So I guess that’s only about 800 miles a month.

One benefit is that I was ably to buy the 7/75K extended warranty instead of the 7/100K which was like 400 bucks more.
I’ll hit the YEARS limit before I hit the MILES.

We used to use my car for everything, but now that we got the RAV4 we use that for most “running around” on the weekends.
The miles are still pretty low on that too. The wife only drives about 4-miles to work.
It’s a year old next month and only has like 6,000 miles on it.

approx 1800-2000 miles a month, give or take. My daily commute is a total of 80 miles which makes up a lot of this.
I've got 33.3k miles as of this morning.

I'm looking at 49,800 miles - bought 6/22/01
That's roughly 1,556 miles per month / 389 miles per week

At least they're all highway miles...

2305/month

In the first year I averaged 2666 a month, trying to cut back....addicting.

Think I can sue Acura for making me drive so much?

I just figured if I average 45mph in my car I have spent 38days in it so far....

About 1300. Car is a year old today. I have just over 16K. It will go down though since I can now walk, or bike to work. Only .2 miles from my job.

I bought my car in Dec 2000, car now has 35,000 miles so about 920ish miles per month. But then again I do drive my fiance's car on and off too so that could explain the low mileage so far.
