I only drive about 5000-7000 per year. I lease mine for 3 years at 10,000/yr and I'm always under my milage at the end. It's my only car and I work from home.

2008 sedan with 64k miles on it. Minimum 40 miles daily not including running errands and such. Does it suck to have so many miles on a relatively new car? YES! Can I do much about it? Not really. So, my advice is just to maintain your car well and enjoy it while you have it. You bought the damn thing, drive it !

I bought the car to enjoy it. To enjoy means driving and pampering it. If driving means a lot of miles, so be it. About 20k a year for me.

If this car is anything like any of my prior vehicles (also VQ's) 150k is nothing, and i know of several who have well over 200k on their cars with mostly regular maintenance/upkeep.

Bought mine in March of this year with 36,xxx miles. I am at 42,xxx right now. However, for some of that time I was working from home with no commute. Now I have a 30 mile a day roundtrip commute, so I expect with errands etc on the weekends I will be doing 10-12,xxx miles a year.

Actually, I can say I'm honest when I say that.

My first car in high school lasted only two years before I ran that into the ground and had it donated to the high school

My second car was running at the end, but after lack of oil changes, two new rear ends, and a new transmission, it was ready to die.

My last car... well, the wheel literally was off when I sold it to a guy for parts.

My G is my daily driver...my only car.

I put 13000 miles on my G since June. I really need to get me a bucket for my work, I drive a lot. If it was solely a commuter car it would be okay but since at times I drive around everywhere I've been thinking about like a 4banger Ford Ranger for like 3k.

Then again, it's not like I have a Lamborghini or something. It's just a G35...
