Why is "Furniture" not listed as an option. I have had mine about 14 months and just passed 2800 miles. I don't drive any of my cars that much. I actually wish I had a longer commute sometimes.

weekend/nighttime/spring/summer/fall here...

12 months with about 5,000 miles... sometimes I wish I drove it more, but there is no way I would bring it to work, car gets washed about 5 times per tank of fuel that runs through it... and I agree with the below statement but scratch the 22 and put in 18 , which I am paying for myself so no flaming

It's my daily, drove it in 6 inches of snow with summer tires! Luckily I live a mile away from work and the rear is heavy.

weekend toy only--never in rain or snow or ice. 3,800 miles in 18 months. I only had the wipers on once--they day I bought it to make sure they worked!!
The paint is still flawless-I only use water (no soap) to rinse off the dust every couple weeks and wipe it dry with towels. I do use soap on the wheels and tires. The car has never been waxed. Once a month or so I use a trickle charger to keep the battery fully charged.

Mine would be both since it's my only vehicle. However, I walk to and from a train station to commute to work so the car sits in the garage during that time and doesn't see much mileage during the week.

Only 6,000 miles during 17 months of ownership.
