I got a 22 Camry xse basically brand new the owner before only had it less than a year and I bought it with 4700 miles on it. How many miles it too many miles driving a week? I’m stay at home mom, I usually only drive my car once a day for errands, doctor appointments, etc. I also stay within my county I don’t go out towards downtown or any other cities. My last car was a 2014 Nissan Altima I bought it in 2017 with around 39k miles and it had 145,000 exactly when I sold it

    94 Celica, I’ve driven it an average of 500 miles a week for the last 7 years. Longest trip was 3000 miles a couple years back. Mostly just cruising around the city though.

    This is a weird question imo. For an average, I believe the standard car lease gives you 10-15k miles a year. Depending on what I’ve had going on in my life, I’ve driven well over that in a year and also less than that in a year.

    To me, you bought the car to drive it. Doesn’t sound like you do heavy driving really but even if you did that’s okay too. Just stick to up keeping your maintenance and a Camry will last you a long time. If you’re thinking you will want to resell in 2-3 years maybe try to keep it under 20k/yr. However if you’re like me and you plan to drive that thing until the wheels fall off then I really wouldn’t worry about it.

    I drive a decent amount for work, and I end up doing about 400-500km/week for about 1600-2000km/month, with an extra 300 added in if I decide to go visit my parents for a weekend. I know thats not really reflective of most drivers

    I bought a Camry specifically because I put miles on it. I drive 45 miles to work so almost 500 per week for my daily commute.

    It’s been 6 months and it drives better now than when I bought it!

    I only put on about 700kms (450ish miles) a month, but every fall, I do a long road trip of around 6000 - 7000 kms to the east coast of Canada. 2020 Highlander XLE AWD with 34 000 kms. It’s lower than it should be because of the pandemic when travel was limited.
