Well , just don't ask a leasing company what average miles per year should
be .
>From what I have seen over the years , I believe that 15,000 per year is
considered "average" . Of course , the people that made these averages
never commuted in Atlanta .
I had a 1994 Shadow that I bought with 3 miles on the odometer . After less
than a year , I had racked up over 55,000 . I was communting 55 miles ONE
WAY to work , not including any errands or off-time driving or trips .
I would think that a normal person would drive at least 20 to 25,000 per
year , unless they had several vehicles and lived about 5 miles from where
they worked .
