Lowest mile '04 TL to date

I took delivery of mine in December, 2003. Almost three years and it's only a little over 10,000 miles. Working out of my home office has reduced my driving considerably. Plus we have another Acura that sees some use. Looking forward to the next generation TL in late 2008.

My 04 JUST crossed 20,000 last week knock off a thousand of that resale. haha I go to auto auctions, and 2 weeks ago an 04 TL w/ 3300 miles went throuh at 27500. why buy it if you don't drive it? I bought mine with 15k miles 3 months ago.....but i drive like 20,000 miles/yr. it sucks.

Thumbs up XP grabs the lead!

7,100 Miles

I purchased mine in April, 2004. I live alone and have three cars. The Jeep is the daily driver. I also travel a lot for business using rental cars.

I just turned 7,000 but am leaving for a six week trip next week. The TL will be garaged for that time. I won't be back home to drive it until 2007. So, come April 2007, it will be three years old and probably about 7,500 miles.

I kept my last car, a Nissan Maxima, for 14 trouble free years. I expect the TL to go longer. The depreciation on the Maxima was $1,000 per year. It was still in showroom condition when I sold it.

Wow, I wish my 04 tl had 3k miles, even 7k miles. I now only drive it twice a week (starting 8 months ago), it has almost 57k on it

I have a mile commute to work, so I'm sitting at 26,000. I've only put 6k on her this year, so I'm under the average.

If I really want to be accurate, I have a 3 block drive to work. So the round trip is less than a mile.

Took delivery June 04’ and it just turned over 4700 miles!

It hibernates in the winter and it only comes out when the sun is shining in the summer!

Sun doesn’t shine much here in upstate NY!

I bought my '04 three months ago. It had 15k miles then, and I'm approaching 19k miles now.

You're lucky. Mine looked pretty bad at only 9k so I replaced them with Michelin Pilot Sports.
