Last year saw much less use due to work schedule and no big trips. A sad fact that I hope to rectify this year. Bring on some decent weather!

got my C4S Memorial Day weekend of 2010, driving it as often as I could here in Central New York...it was my DD that first summer, but not this year(my commute is only 5 minutes for the current project)-20K miles have been put on it. She read 63K when I brought her home, now 83K.
If everything goes to plan, I'll be doing the 90K service by mid summer.

2-4K/year I'd imagine. I only had her as a Cab for 3 months before she went to England ... and since SpeedArena returned, most of the miles have been breaking in the new motor and going to Rennsport :-)

I was putting less that 2k per year on the car and that is one reason it was sold.
We actually put very little miles on our cars these days as we both work from home and the rental houses are all close. Sometimes we go more than a month between fill-ups on the Trooper that gets the bulk of the around town and rental driving. The BMW and my wifes' SL500 go on life support (on board battery tender) periodically. Our travel schedule also contributes to this lack of miles.
We did put 1900 or so miles on the BMW this summer with a nice road trip down the Oregon Coast to Lodi and Folsom CA. Did you know a wine barrel (empty) fits on the back seat!
We got caught in commute traffic the other day and we both thought back to the days we commuted...do not miss that one bit!

Not as much as I'd like to. But projects and hobbies seem to be taking up most of my free time. Now that I think about it, I might need to reassess my priorities........

The 42K I've put on the 4S in 7+ years of ownership have come in fits and spurts. Like the 10K over last winter. But maybe 2K in the past 9 months? Just no place to drive it as I'm doing 3K/mo. in my truck since I repossessed the vending company. With no let up in sight. I think over Vending 1.0 (when I originally owned the business) the car didn't move for a year in '06-'07.
The yellow car has gone probably 3K in the four years I've owned it, maybe 500 miles on the street.
