What is your daily commute (mileage) in the rx8?
I'm talking work, school, errands, etc.
I might have to be putting 40 miles a day on my rx8 starting in April![Frown](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/frown.gif)

In 265 days since I bought the car, I've put 4,000 miles on it, or an average of 15 miles per day.
But since it's not my daily driver, that figure is misleading. I usually only drive it on weekends, and with winter here, not at all for about the next 3 months. (Sniff!)
I'm in the Explorer until the spring rains come and wash away the salt and sand from the road.

Oh thats nice.
I let me girlfriend drive mine to work during the week (i take her accord). My work is 40 miles round trip, hers is 20. Save 100 miles a week this way as well as gas $.....but i absolutely HATE letting her drive it. I HATE IT! She knows how much i love that car so she knows to be careful. I just hope she doesnt pull a Ferris Buellers Day Off and snap one day w/ jealous rage...

I'm trying to find a solution.
My options are free rent (saves me about $500-$550 a month) OR put 40-45 miles a day on my car. whats the opinion?
