Weekly mileage

I did the math out today and figured out that I put a little over 300 miles a week on my truck.

Around 20,500 miles in 67 weeks of driving it.

I didn't realize I did that much driving in a week and it got me wondering how much everyone else drives in a week on average?

It's 5 miles to work and 5 miles back home. I have my Ranger so I don't put much on my truck right now.

Less than 5000 miles in the last 2 years.3000 of those was two trips to Fla
At this rate I will be scrapping a set of tires with less than 15k miles

24 miles to work so just working 5 days a week that's roughly 250 not counting church that's 20 miles and that's at least twice a week so now that's 330 a week. Plus I do bushhogging on the side. Good lord that's alot. I guess that's why my fuel bill is so high at 12 mpg . I guess that ranger would pay for itself in no time.

50 miles to work one way, 100+ miles a day. 50-100 miles on weekends depending on whats going on. Approx 550 miles a week. Consistant 17.5-18 MPG, approx $380 a month fuel bill. Anyone got a diesel jetta for sale? Im a big boy, not sure I could be comfortable in a jetta, but for 40+mpg i can get real comfortable. lol

Yeah I'm also in the 550 a week club. It's a big difference from the 3000 a week I used to do.

a... lot!!

so I bought this truck in May at 268000...

Now I am at 288000 so 20000 miles in 7 months, which is almost 3000 miles a month, or about 714 miles a week...

Its slowed down a bit since I work at home, but I am still puting about 500+ miles a weekend the last 2 months or so.

This winter that is going to go up considerably... Good times

I drive 300 to 450 miles per week, depending on adventures. The truck sees none of it, it sits in the garage LOL.
