Monthly mileage

[Sammy]

Since I retired at the end of June my monthly mileage has gone way down. Before I used to average 500 to 1000 miles plus per month now since the 1st of July I've driven a grand total of 60 miles. Sure does save at the gas pumps!
What's everyone's average mileage driven monthly?

Less than 100 miles a month.

39 months since new, 12,700 miles total. All on retirement.

I retired in June 2021, bought the Ranger in August 21 and have 16k miles on it as of today.

I drive as much now as I did when I was working.

Ranger is about 146 miles per month
Highlander is about 69 miles per month
Jeep is about 178 miles per month on an average per a year but most of the miles are in the non-winter months as the Forest Service shuts most of the roads in the Sierras during the rainy season.

I am a widower so all of the mileage is by myself.

Retired also. Owned Tremor since 4/1/22. 4500 on it now. 2500+ of it has been several long trips. Have a few more trips coming up this summer/fall and then a 3K plus trip to Florida this winter. Guessing I’ll be around 10K on its 1 year anniversary.

Almost in the same boat as you are. I'm retired 12 years now, I used to put a lot of miles commuting back and forth. On my second career now (easy gig, and close to home) and I average around 30 miles a week-Mon-Fri back and forth to work.
This October will be 1 year I have the Ranger, and I currently have just under 4k on the odometer.
Looking forward to taking a trip to Erie, PA tomorrow with my daughter to check out a Medical school, approx. 875 miles round trip from where I am. Get that oil hot and let the Ranger have a good run on the highway.

Enjoy your Retirement!

I drive a lot, 2k a month. just passed 40K.

I work from home, 1500 miles so ~300 per month since 3/12 mostly short trips in town which is reflected in my MPG. Those of you with low miles ever worry about the 3 year warranty with hardly any miles on the od?

I retired a long time ago now. When I first retired, we were living in San Francisco, so my monthly mileage dropped quite a bit (probably from about 1K a month, to more like 400 miles a month).

When we moved to Idaho, my monthly mileage popped back up as all the places we might go got farther apart and we were a fair distance from Boise, where we did most of our shopping etc., so again more like 1K miles a month.

When we moved into our current house (in Boise) and Covid literally just started closing everything down (we moved in March of 2020). My monthly mileage dropped to for sure under 400mi a month (maybe as low as 200-300). We didn't go anywhere but to and from local trails, the grocery store, etc.

Things have started to open up some (our lifestyle that is), we have taken a few longer trips, probably averaging about 1K/mo for my Ranger and her Hylander combined (although I think she would now say, Bill's Hylander and Mary's Ranger.)

I got to drive my Ranger for the first time in quite a while today. I think once I am off using a cane, I will be back to something closer to 1K miles a month.

Thanks you too! I retired to take care of my missus. She is battling lymphoma and I decided to get her out of the care center and be her full time caregiver. "In Sickness and health". We take our vows seriously.
