It's 2 and 3/4 miles from home to my office and since my wife and I work together we often car pool, usually taking her PT. First years miles were right at 6K, but I was inventing excuses to drive the Ram when ever possible. My typical miles/year are more like 5K.

Please tell me that you didn't drive to home and school everyday. lol j/k

I don't know how much I drive per year, because I haven't had it a year. I'll say between 5-10k miles. If I only had to drive to school, less than 500 miles. If only to school and my new job, around 7 miles school days and 6 miles saturdays. So not that many miles. But I drive around, and out to the country.

You sure did get a lot of highway use in your truck.
The farthest from home I've been is about 92 miles in my truck. Went to go visit a college. My mom did take my truck about 600 miles to Topeka to pick my step-dad up in his Chevy, which crapped out on him there. (Or so he thought.)
