yup, it's a 2002 with 104,961 miles on it. I purchased it in 2004 with 37,000 miles. Believe it or not, I've never taken the car farther than Santa Maria, Joshua Tree, and San Diego. I also offer to drive all the time. Between the rock-star parking, and a crazy ass childhood fear, ya, I like to be designated driver.
Oh, Pacey! You blind idiot. Can't you see she doesn't love you?

I drive 45ish miles a day round trip for work commute alone. Often that is 6 days a week. Probably not as much as ND drives... but... now you know why I wanted a hybrid!

You drive a lot in town. You put sixty thousand miles on it in three years!
That's insane. You crazy man.

ND drives a lot, but spreads it out over multiple cars.
Or, has been able to do so for several years now, anway. I suspect the cars he had when he was younger got a lot more miles put on them in bulk, but he was also driving to Washington and back during that time.

I make up for you guys. I think it ( Now) takes me 8 or 9 months to drive 3000 miles.

Sean, Drew easily averages over 20,000 miles a year in the Escape, but yeah--he does tend to switch into a new car every couple of years. I put about 17,000/year on my Prius and plan to drive it until it falls apart.
ION, I have an awesome idea for the blog I'm writing for Victor's online literary magazine and have done all of the research I needed to do to prepare...and now I have to actually write it. Must. Focus. It was due last night. Did I mention that?

I put a lot of miles on my old car, when I was driving 50+ miles round trip to work. But when I moved, I bought a new car, and put many fewer miles on it. And now, in my new place where I'm probably going to take the bus? Even fewer miles!
So, I probably shouldn't sing the word to the tune of "Unforgettable," then. Okay. Good to know.
Oh, god, now it's in my HEAD like that!
