6500 miles since June '03. I would be bummed to put so many miles on an EVO, but I know it's fun having that power on the freeway.

I broke 8k last week or so. Bought it in July.

It's my daily. Hopefully I can afford a beater soon so I keep the milage low

I'm inbound on 15k... 4 more weeks is a year. the miles just add up i guess. I dont do many road trips, most of my miles is killed on my commute to school (30mi/day) and then work on the weekends. I average 300mi a week. Well what can i say it is a car, and the reason we got it is to drive it, and have fun.

True that man ... you buy the Evo to drive and have fun ... thats what a car is for ...

I'm keeping my Evo for 3 - 4 yrs .... and I'm gonna drive the shi out of it .... mod the shi out of it ... but then at the same time Im gonna do proper regular maintenance ... i think the car would be just fine!

If you started a poll, it'd be easier to track. I know others have in the past - but it's been awhile.

I'm at 10k

Got mine July 3, 2003 and I have 11,500 miles on it. Mostly the communte to work BUT I really don't care because my warrentee is already shot and I bought the car to drive it not to let it sit around collecting dust.

I have noticed that the mileage creeps up about 10 per cent (maybe more) too high....color me slightly troubled about this, as has every reason to make the milages turn too quick.
