How many miles are you averaging a year.

I know I put on a lot of miles... ~35K a year spread over several cars. But every time I look around there seems to be someone here posting about their 2001 with a total of 20K miles?

Doesn't anyone actually use these vehicles? What kind of mileage are you driving?

Well from Ferndale I can imagine you HAVE to do a lot of driving. Nice place though.

I know we are in the middle of nowhere just about. But I work in B.C. Vancouver market and the Seattle area. My miles should slow down a little bit as I am opening a new area in Mexico and spending a week down there a month.

2 vehicles, 2 drivers, less than 8000 km/5000 m per year on each of them. Time to sell one of them.

Less than 10K/year. I've discovered that it often has parts failures which keeps me from using it as a daily driver. It spends most of its time in the garage with the hood up. Otherwise I would drive it more. It seems that often each drive turns out to be an expensive one. I would love to put 20K+miles a year on it but I don't think it is physically capable of doing it . . . my bank account that is.

2001 with 99K miles. I've had since new and it's my only car and daily driver (I'm single). It's been rock solid and reliable.
