How many miles a week do you drive?

[ringmastery]

I live about a mile away from a major shopping center where I do 95% of my shopping.

I work 5 miles away from my home.

During an average week, I probably drive 60-70 miles and with a small economy car that gets 30+ miles per gallon. The price of gas isn't a huge issue for me. I can get by on $5 of gas a week.

How much do you drive and pay for gas?

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

1. 100 miles per day

for a 5 day work week. Right now, paying a little less than $2 per gallon. Luckily, my car gets great gas mileage. Hoping my husband will create a hybrid soon out of one of our old junkers.

2. damn

how do you handle a 50 mile commute? why don't you live closer to work?

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

8. No traffic. I live in heaven.

well, fairly close to it-Newton Co AR is just far away from every town. The commute goes through Boxley Valley with the wild Buffalo River. I usually see more wild animals than cars-elk, deer, egret, heron, ducks, and the occasional bald eagle.

3. ummm maybe 25?

50? 10? I dunno. I can go bout 6 weeks between getting gas, but that's with a prius after all..

4. On a slow week about 900 miles

a busy week, 1,500 miles.
Gas is .90 Cdn $/litre
= doing that quickly in my head
=$2.44 US gallon

But I drive a work truck and have work-supplied gas cards.

12. here's my .02

i drive less than 30 miles per week. i cycle nearly everywhere . . ..

[Angelus]

14. I drive 0 miles a day and I pay 0 dollars for gas.

I prefer to walk or take public transportation. :)

[NightTrain]

15. On my driving job alone, I do anywhere from 100-250 miles a day.

And I work a five-and-a-half-day week. And that doesn't even take into account all the driving I do when I'm on my own time!

Let's just say, when I'm not working, I try to drive as little as possible....

[Deja Q]

16. 150 miles per week, best case scenario

At 26.9 MPG, I spend about $20 every other week or so.

So far, I'm lucky. If it gets worse...

[Doctor Smith]

17. Less than 5

I cycle 150-200 miles/week, though.

I get about 10 miles/candy bar.

18. re: here's my .02

ha ha ha ha ha! :thumbsup:

[mosin]

19. About 225 miles per week

including 20 miles each way to and from work.

[PittPoliSci]

20. about 400 a week

my girlfriend lives a good distance away from me, plus i commute to work.

[ikojo]

21. ZERO...I don't own a car and I take public

transit and ride my bike.

[Lisa0825]

23. About 500 miles per week for commuting to work... about another 100

on the weekends.

[LWolf]

24. about 100 miles a week

unless I have a special event to drive to.

I live about 3 miles from work. All shopping is done on the way there or back. Including gas stops. I drive out to see my horses as often as possible; minimum twice a week, more when the work schedule allows. That's 20 miles round trip. So 100 miles is 3 horse trips, 5 trips to work, and an extra 10 miles thrown in for any other errands. My old toyota truck gets about 22 mpg. Not great, but not terrible, either. I fill the tank about twice a month.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

25. In an average week, maybe 5-10 miles

I pride myself on getting through each month since moving to Minneapolis on just one tank of gas, even during the bus strike.
