How much do you drive your car?

Just trying to get a feeling of how many miles people drive their EVO a month. Should be fun to know.

well when it was the summer, me and the friends use to drive 500miles on weekend only, I used to drive 60 miles a day for work.

60 x 5 = 300miles

500 miles for weekends

= 800 miles

x 4

= 3200 miles a month.

jebus.

It's my daily driver but I don't drive it everyday. I work from home. To put it another way I have had the car for almost 2 years and have 23k miles on it. Hell, I even drove it from Ohio to Colorado, 1300 miles.

100 miles a day x 5 days a week = 500 miles

5 days x 4 weeks = 2000 miles

+whatever I do on weekends + tofu deliveries + god knows what ... = ?? I would assume 2250+

Have had the car for 6 months and have 13500 =T

50 Miles one way * twice a day * 5 days a week = 500 miles

Track days in two different states twice a month and race = 400 miles * 2 = 800 miles

Total per month = 2800 give or take

Total miles in 6 months = 18000

January 28th my commute changes to 5 miles a day total :-D

Put a thou on it the first week then had to commute in it for 8 months. I have put less than 1000 on since last June. It is a year and a half old and has 12.000 on it. I keep it in my garage on rollers until I want to play. I may stay streetable or go to race tune I haven't decided.

20 months here - got a majority of everyone beat I'm sure on the age! 19k miles.

Daily driver, but don't drive that much since I'm involved in a work at home (Virtual Office) program.
