It seems the "average" person puts somewhere around 15k miles on their vehicle per year. Breaking this down, you're talking just over 300 miles per week.
If you're trying to determine how much you're putting on your vehicle, reset the trip odometer to "0". After a week of driving check the mileage you've actually put on it. If you're trying to determine how to cut back those miles, use the trip odometer again to figure out your average round trip mileage to & from work. This is most likely where you're generating the bulk of your miles. Be mindful of trips to the store, visit people, etc., that seem to pack mileage on your vehicle without you realizing it.

Just to and from work, I do 260 a week. Add to that shopping, and any other driving, and if I have to do an extra day of work, its another 52 miles, so on average
I would say at least 300, since the nearest shopping id 15 miles away.

The national average is 15,000 miles a year 15000/52 = 288 miles. This isn't realistic though as it depends on your driving havints and daily commute.

It's supposed to be about 12,000 miles a year. So that would mean about 1,000 miles per month and about 250 per week.

Well you would have to figure out the weekly amount but most car dealers say around 15,000 to 17,000 a year is average

210 miles. Or actually check you car warranty.
IF the care warranty says 50000miles or 3 years, which ever comes first, then you know that normal is 50000 miles in 3yrs.

i think the first answer is right, when you lease a car they expect you to put about 12,000 miles anually on the vehicle.
myself, i put about 250 a DAY on mine. but thats not normal practice.
although i must say, you cant kill a dodge. I have tried.

I think average is 20,000 / year. Divided by 52 weeks in a year = 385 miles / week.

i just drive my car to work and back, local area, and maybe to the store or something, i always end up putting at least 40 miles on it a day, but i think insurance companies like for it to be less.....(that way if you use it alot, they can charge you more for insurance...lol)
