How many miles a year does your daily driver F-body get
 
The question is for those who drive a F-body as a daily driver how many miles a year do your average? Im glad to hear input on what your daily driver gets even if its not an F-body but mostly looking towards those who daily drive an fbody such as myself

Exactly one year since i got mine ive done 26,000 miles

Tru2Chevy 07-12-2009 08:30 PM

My wife and I both average ~15k / year with our Jeeps.

BigRocsFirebird 07-12-2009 08:52 PM

i get my license tomorrow. but with my permit i put 848.7 miles! not much haha.

nice matt now in 3-5 years it's time for a rebuild at this rate

BonzoHansen 07-12-2009 08:54 PM

Whoops, missed the DD part.

My garage queen is car #4 and gets ~3000 miles

Then again my beater truck has gotten <4000 miles in 6 years, my DD gets about 6000 a year. The real family truckster pilot gets ~17,000 a year.

cdacda13 07-12-2009 08:56 PM

When I DD'd the camaro, I put about 10,000 on it a year.

LTb1ow 07-12-2009 09:10 PM

DD the Z, prob less than 5k a year. I don't go any where... lol

NastyEllEssWon 07-12-2009 09:12 PM

i put 3k miles on the z28 last year....2500 on the thirdgen the year before and this year i have about 1k on the t/a....so yeah...less than 5k miles

sweetbmxrider 07-12-2009 09:39 PM

probably around 5k that i actually got to drive for say, 6 months? :lol:

bike gets around 4 miles a day if its not raining 8-)

creeper 07-12-2009 09:54 PM

i put about 1100 miles on my car per month. not too bad.

The Fixer 07-12-2009 09:56 PM

My '01 Cherokee is the daily driver, and gets about 8K miles a year. My wife's Liberty is driven under 5K miles a year, and the Monte is the absolute lowest. I've owned it 5 years, and have put only 5K miles on it. :( Of course, it went through a complete drivetrain swap in that time, and another motor swap after a few years, but still - I miss driving it! It's broken in my garage again, waiting for me to install some new rotors/pads/bearings in the front.

Anti_Rice_Guy 07-12-2009 10:46 PM

Explorer gets about 12k miles per year. Camaro...500ish this year so far.

JL8Jeff 07-12-2009 10:53 PM

In the 2-1/2 years I used the 2000 SS as my daily beater I put 18K miles on it. So 5-10K a year.

S.J.SLEEPER 07-12-2009 11:06 PM

MY Z -----28K IN ONE YEAR
MY WIFES Z----0 MILES IN 3 YEARS
HAHAHA YOU GUYS SEE A GOOD TREND HERE !!!!!!

Jam 07-13-2009 12:47 AM

I've Owned the Trans Am for about 2 1/2 months.... and i've already put about 6,000 miles........

TAdan 07-13-2009 11:55 AM

I average about 9k a year on my 84. It is up to 226,000. Had it for about 15 years now.

V 07-13-2009 12:06 PM

I dont think i EVER only had one car to drive, but when i did daily drive my SS the majority of the time, aug2001-aug2005, i racked up 62,000miles total(im pretty sure thats what it was). So that was like 15.5k miles a year. Since the new motor april2007-november2008 i think i clocked another 7k miles.

As for other random mileage facts....
Now my most recent DD(non-fbody - SKY) i did 11k miles from june 1st - Dec 1st.....
And as for my Denali... like 34k miles since Sept 2005.
My '96 Dodge ram... 67k miles since 1996...
My '85 iroc has 158k miles on original lg4/t5/10bolt drivetrain...
My '89 iroc chassis has 50k miles..
My '79 Vette lt1(just motor)..6,609 original miles ;-)
I, myself, have driven about 35 miles total since December 29th, 2008....

btownws6 07-13-2009 12:19 PM

my trans am gets like 5 to 7 k a year depends on my mood. my daily driver i put 45k last year. i bought it with 15k july 08 and it has 60k right now lol the third gen hasnt moved in a year lol

Whiplash Performance 07-13-2009 02:31 PM

My daily driver sees about 35k miles a year.

I drive all over the place. When I had my Silveado SS last year I was spending $200.00 per week in gas.

BurninrubberGT 07-13-2009 02:58 PM

my dd 4 door trans am does about 7-10k a year lol

the trans am see's anywhere from 200-700 per year...thats a guestimate

xrelapse13 07-14-2009 11:29 PM

Knipps 07-14-2009 11:35 PM

I've put a few thousand on the truck this summer alone, the camaro's probably had less than 2k in the time I've owned it :-?

I'm in the same boat. My DD sees about 20K per year, but my camaro sees about 1K.

LuvMyF8LWS6 07-15-2009 09:54 AM

I have 3 DD, and together, I've put on 14,000 miles on them. My Formula, I just put on 1,000 since I bought it, 2 years ago this past June! lol

Jersey Mike 07-15-2009 12:40 PM

I've put about 6-7k on the T/A since I got it back in February.
