re: 2017 used car with 12,000 miles - How is this possible?

My grandmother would only put about 1000/yr on her land yacht. She went to the beauty parlor, church and Piggly Wiggly once a week. Maybe the occasional side trip. And she still flipped out when we took away the keys.

My mom has a 9 year old Pontiac with 9500 miles on it…she goes to church, bridge and bingo…all within 10 miles of her house

My 2018 just turned 18k

One time my grandmother gave me her car. It was 10 years old with a little less than 50k miles on it.

I have a 2009 VW Jetta with a little under 30K miles on it.

I turned 15 and got my driver's license and my first car all on the same day in 1982. I bought a 1969 Ford Fairlane 4 door from a little old lady in our church. She was the original owner. It was a 13 year old car and had 1,800 miles on it. I paid her $400.

Interestingly, in 2007 I bought a used BMW Z-4. Kind of a mid life crisis vehicle. Bought it from a doctor in Dallas. He warned me he only had one key, and that if I lost it, the cost to replace it would be $450. We both laughed when I told him I only paid $400 for my first car.

That would be an average of 9 miles per day if they only drove to work and back during that time.

Or they don’t drive to work.

Since it's an Audi, it's probably been in the shop most of that time.

Here's an idea...because they didn't drive it much. WOW mind blowing to think.
