Daily Drivers and their Mileage

FromG2Z · 06-03-2011, 10:30 AM

Not my DD, but at 1230 miles, I average about 17.

TypeOne · 06-03-2011, 12:29 PM

I've been driving mine for... 8 months and have put 9580 miles on it. 1600 miles of that was on the trip home from buying it. I'll probably put another 5-6k on it before the year is over.

Average MPG is around 17-18. (99% city and my my foot are to blame)

09 with 19k in a year and 3 months.
I miss the Z when i dont drive it for a day.
:P

2011 with 4K miles since March 1. It's my wife's DD and gets at least 25 mi per day just on the regular commute. Mostly highway + relaxed driving = 20-25 mpg at best. Spirited weekend driving = 10-15 mpg.

I'm not sure why I thought I should just let the car sit instead of driving it DD. Cars are made to be driven and in this day and age they don't just die at 100k mi anymore. I guess proper care is the key here.

I put on about six miles a day going to and from work. Never bothered to check gas milage. I bought it about a month ago, new, with 300 miles on it. It has about 800 miles on the clock.

Belsavis · 06-03-2011, 12:07 PM

Got it May 09 and now have 38k. Majority spent on I-45 or I-10 usually getting 26mpg. However my overall average covering all 1747gal used so far is 22mpg.

I purchased my 2010 in October and I am currently at 14K miles. I drive about 75 miles a day and average 23.7 mpg says the computer ( 90% highway )

I thought I put lots of miles on. You need to be doing it better and cleaner than the other guy. Now what is it with you?

I tried to keep the miles low on mine. I can't help it. My 240 is a blast to drive too, but I almost always opt to take the 370.

Hard deck my ***. We nailed that son of a b!tch.

freking8 · 06-04-2011, 04:19 PM

Bought my 2009 touring last March with 10k miles on it. Now it's at a bit over 12k miles. I drive 20 miles daily to work and back. I get about 20 mpg

TheGreatOne · 06-03-2011, 12:38 PM

2010 that what 18K on it

Started driving her March 15th and I'm at 21K now roughly. I should cut down on the joy riding with these gas prices but I can't help it

Always take the longer way no matter where I'm going.

My kpg is around 15, so I think I'm driving her well lol
