Poll: How many miles do you drive per year?

5 to 7 thousand per year, most years. Some years 30 thousand. Never know and never care, it's called life and you just do it.

 

i average about 30K/yr as well. i'm not in it so much for the mpg, more for the technology and ideology to try to fix the revolving oil problem we are in. also, once i read about all the tech gadgets the prius came with for the price, i was sold (namely SE/SS and NAV).

30,000/year here, too.

 

I drive about 12,000 miles a year. My months are pretty consistent at 1,000 miles give or take.

I am just starting my first year of driving. I am expecting to drive 10,000 a year, so the warranty and Miles are right about the same. I have it all calculated, i can drive about 29.8 miles a day. Or about 850 a month. So if I don't drive it today, then about 60 miles tomorrow and so on. I am saving some for my trip to Vegas after School gets out this Friday.

 

About 17,000

 

Around 15,000

 

Low 20s (of kilomiles).

I am not ashamed to say that I am in this for the mpg.

 

When I bought my Civic, 15 years ago, I lived out in the country, and I made some long trips, and I used up my 3-year warranty in 2 years. (No worries: it was a Honda and went many years before anything needed replacing.)

Now I live in town, and with one long trip I've put on less than 3,000 miles in 5 months. At this rate I'm heading for 7,200 miles per year. Or 5,500 if I don't take another long trip.

The less I drive, the less non-renewable petroleum I consume. It's a lifestyle choice, including living in a small city where everything is close.

But driving a lot or driving a little, I pollute less in the Prius than I would in another car. And the technology is cool. Money does not enter into the consideration for me. Gas can go to $10 a gallon for all I care. But if it was 25 cents per gallon I'd still have bought the Prius, for the techno-geek factor, and, more importantly, for the Kermit factor.

 

I run about 40k miles per year. Yup, I drive ALOT.

[font=Andalus:4f0abda806] [/font:4f0abda806] We don't do much long distance driving. My wife puts about 9k, mostly city,on her Odyssey and I put around 12k on my Accord, mainly highway to work and some extra to football games each fall. The Prius, when we get it, will replace the Odyssey and so should be the 9k car of our future..

 

I put about 25,000 miles on my car each year commuting to and from work. Add another 5K to 10K for weekends and personal trips where we don't use my wife's Odyssey.

 

around 10,000 a year. My finace insists on taking his car on trips, so that is just my commute and local errands and things

 

Only reason I got Prius was because of my new job with long commute. I expect to add 40,000 miles per year. I hope to change my job within two years so that I can drive Prius longer. Less than three weeks old Prius already has over 3500 miles. uggggg....

 

Don't feel too bad yet. I have 22,700 miles on mine in 6 months. :crazyeyes:

 

Typically drive 50Kper year so the Prius fuel savings become real factor in cost of ownership. Test will be to see how durability fits into the equation.
