> I’ve driven almost 20k miles in the past 3.5 months.

Wow. I drive everyday, but this is a lot of driving. You're looking at nearly 70,000 miles/year at that rate. Out of curiosity, what requires you to drive this much? And is it worth the tens of thousands of dollars you need to spend per year on fuel and car maintenance to do that (on top of the time commitment it is to drive that much)?



Haha.

I bought my car in San Diego and drove across the country to Florida. I recently did a trip up to NY/VT and back (to FL).

I do smaller, random weekend trips. I drove to Jacksonville and back this weekend. I do often drive around the Tampa area, for fun.

Regarding gas, thanks for reminding me to do the calculation, heh.

Is it worth it? I'll do the calculation and get back to you :)

I left my job in November, so I don't view it as a commitment. I just drive for fun.
