I daily drive my car
Last year, with me being out of the country for 3 months, I still put over 12k miles on my car.
I drive on my track setup every day. Not drag slicks, but stil comp tires for auto-x.
See last answer
I put between 12-15k miles/year on my car. Bought it 6 years ago with 90k, and it now has over 150k, and that includes 6 months with my permit, a full year and a half in high school, and the past 4 years in college.
My car is practically used every day. Suck it.

5. 2-3k. Max.
Classic mustangs are anything but practically. They're a lot of work to drive, they tend to make you sore. The gas mileage is horrendous. They handle pretty horribly.
But I wouldn't trade my 70 for a newer one. And I wouldn't trade my fun toy for a "practical" one.
My 70 is a 351w stroked to 408. Naturally aspirated and 525 to the rear wheels. Poor motor doesn't even get driven enough to be broken in yet.

I've had my car a year and 3 months and put 14k miles on it. I really have no idea how people can only put 1-3k miles on their car a year lol. Oh btw this is with the car stored 6 months of the year.
