Bought my 02 max 11/21/01 and have 536.4 miles on it :D . I am parking it for the winter in a few weeks though.

augie Dec 1, 2001 08:04 PM

I drive about 14-15,000 miles a year. I don't think thats so bad.

GXEme Dec 1, 2001 08:04 PM

Bought my 2k in April with 28,000 on it. It now has 53,000 on it! Yep that's right 37,500 miles a year average so far. Imagine if I didn't car pool?

jykishan Dec 1, 2001 08:55 PM

bought my 01 in december 2000 brand new, now has 16,500.

I used to have a 95 maxima and we used to take out a wire that would shut off the speedometer and at the same time would also shut off the mileage counter, so we could prolong our warranty:D . Anyone know if that can be done on the 5th gen?

oh yeah dont worry about being the one who bought my 95, i totalled it:D

MichaelAE Dec 1, 2001 09:09 PM

Do I win the prize?
 
After 10 months of driving, I have put 5300 miles on (and I did not leave a zero off). :)

unferth33 Dec 1, 2001 09:16 PM

I've had mine since sept. of 99 and I've got 46,400...

...Recently I've actually started to drive less too....


so at that rate in 5 years the car should be worth about nothing :)

now thats low...

at my rate in 10 months i'd be at 20k miles.

Y2KMaxGXE-R Dec 2, 2001 09:09 AM

2k bought in august of 2000, just hit the 20k mi mark. Thats 16K/year. Love driving it, but get a rental car whenever can. Maximas depreciate in value a lot with high mileage. I don't plan on keeping it forever @ same time want to get smthg for it when trading in.

For most cars these days, I don't think that it can be done. To my understanding, the computers in the cars these days keep track of driving habits and can give an error message if something doesn't match up internally with the reported mileage.

jnm2kse Dec 3, 2001 04:59 AM

I drive 86 miles each way to work everyday. 172 mile per day. 5 days a week...52 weeks in a year.. You do the math :)

Approx 44K a year and maybe 40k if we factor in a vacation or 2:D

Joys of living in East Bumf@ck otherwise known as Cape Cod.

I'm probably going to buy a 4th Gen 5spd and give my 2K to my wife so it isn't worth 6 thousand bucks in a year or so.

dave Dec 3, 2001 05:12 AM

purchased 8/2000.
11,228 miles the first year.
currently just below 15,000 (time for another tire rotation)
avg mpg (life of car): 22.14

RinRobyn Dec 3, 2001 07:24 AM

Purchased car on 8/01 - currently have 3100 on it - avg. less then 10K a year at this rate.

Also I have a 93 honda civic with only 82,000 miles on it - so I dont put a lot of miles on it.
