    I've owned the truck for 1 year and 1 week. I did the math based on current mileage and the mileage when I purchased and I've averaged 143 miles/week since purchase.

    Haha, I just did the math and I may hold the record, but I don't know.

    667 miles a week. 320 of that is to and from my M-F 7-5. The rest is weekends, jaunts into the city, errands, skiing, and visiting the girlfriend. I've put 10675 on myself since I picked it up from ESI Sept. 26, 2008. Looking at 13300 miles on the odometer. I average 23 mpg.

    The next question is...of those of you that drive 200+ mi a week, do any of you have a lift or bigger tires?
    If you dont, would you lift your truck and put bigger tires due to how many miles you drive for gas mileage?

    none except for crappy hub caps and floor mats.
    I used to live 1 mile from work. I rarely drove. For the last 3 years, I've driven 550 miles M-F, and more if we drive weekends. We take lots of 500+ mile roads trips. The truck now has 216,000 miles. I change the oil roughly 1.5 months. We semi-retired the truck and now drive my Wife's car, which had 45h when we got it, now pushing 80k.We take the truck on trips and use it on weekends now.

    Yeah I think you take the cake. The first year I was averaging 576 a week to and from work. I had to buy a second car and park the truck for awhile. I bought a decent used car in '07 and basically parked the truck unless I needed it to haul stuff.

    Dude, I walk that much a week :rolleyes:

    I'm at around 200 right now this week, but 120 of it is due to coming back to school, and 70 is due to multiple trips to the mall to get stuff.

    On weeks that I don't really go anywhere, I might drive 50 miles in a week.

    I put around 100-150 miles a week about 4 months out of the year (winter) and then once it gets warm enough (50's+) I break the motorcycle out and that becomes my daily driver.

    The truck might get 4500 miles on it a year. Bike gets a lot more.

    I just want to upgrade to 16X8s and some 265/70 ATs.

    I will also be breaking out the motorcycle. I put 275 a week on that over the summer.
