With all of the topics of over 100,000, 200,000, etc.  How many have less than 100,000?

I recently purchased a 2005 Z71 with 86,600 miles.  I'm loving this truck.  I hope it holds up for awhile!  This is a replacement for my 1998 Dodge Durango that had 275,000 miles.
 
First welcome to the website!

While your question at first appears simple it really won't give much info without asking more such as which year AV a person has, was it owned by them since new,mostly highway miles or city driving etc....
Otherwise you might as well ask who has the lowest total miles on their AV regardless of year made........
If you are asking if your AV is considered low, average or high mileage you might find this info interesting from U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration as of 2016 :



Average Annual Miles per Driver by Age Group
Age        Male          Female      Total
16-19 8,206 6,873 7,624
20-34 17,976 12,004 15,098
35-54 18,858 11,464 15,291
55-64 15,859 7,780 11,972
65+        10,304 4,785 7,646
Average 16,550 10,142 13,476


I have less than 100,000 on my current AV but have owned one before since 2004 so not sure what my total AV mileage would be.

I hope you have many happy and safe miles in your new to you AV!
 
I have a 2005 2500 with 48500 miles.  I bought it in 2010 with 29000 miles.  Its main use is pulling our 32 ft Arctic Fox travel trailer.  It has a K&N intake and performance exhaust.  It also has a Predator program.  Does a great job with 10K lbs of trailer.
 
My 2013 LS has just gone over 27,000 miles.  Bought it brand new in Dec 2013 trading in a 2003 Z66 I bought brand new in 2003 that had about 105,000 miles on it whe Imtraded it in.  Like the truck.  Comfortable and plenty of room
 
'02 - 2500....98,350 - Always garaged and only used to pull my travel trailer a few thousand miles a year.
 
I do!  :wave:
My 2002 has 67630 miles.
If I add up all the miles driven on the three Avs I have owned, it comes in around 95,000 total.
 
I have a 2013 LTZ bought new with just over 80,000.  All highway miles as I put 75,000 on it before retiring in December.  Now just around local and GTG get put on it.  They are great vehicles. :B:
 
My 2002 2500 has just over 84,000 miles.  Bought it in December 2013 with 70,400 miles.  Replaced all the lines due to rust, fixed/upgraded a few other things along the way.  It gets used pretty much as a tow vehicle only, mostly for our travel trailer. The big 8.1L is awesome for towing, plan to keep it for a long time.
 
I wish I had only 70,000 miles, but I had that around 2007
 
2006 with 68K miles.

So far,

replace all brakes - $700
transmission replaced - $3900
intake gasket leak - $1200
front wheel bearing units replaced because kept activating traction control - $1000
replace all gas lines and brake lines due to rust - $750
replace brake line distributing valve - $1200
replace rear bumper due to rust - $300

still broken and not fixed yet,

driver butt heater shorted out, causes driver seat heater control on door to turn itself on and off randomly
front speakers(doors and pillars) randomly work and don't work
front bowtie looks like it is half full of water, needs replaced
clear coat coming off front left fender


 
Driving my 02 purchased July of 01 with 85365 miles, here in Pa. inspection is yearly and as i drive i get a pass on the emissions testing ( less than 5000 miles driven} last month the gas gauge stopped working BUT knowing what my gas mileage is can tell when to gas up.
 
My current AV a 04 2500 bought in 2012 with 24K miles now has only 37K miles  :eek:

Holy Cow!  I wish I could have found a 2500 with that low mileage before i bought my 1500. 
 
Just under 45k miles on our 2013 LTZ.

Our 02 had 170k and change when we traded it in April of '13.

I got lucky, only about 50 miles from my house and the small car lot gave me a good amount for my 03 1500 as trade  :D
 
Quite a list for that mileage.I have 85000 on mine now,and have almost done the same things on mine..The trans was rebuilt before i bought it(at 65000miles).

Bought my 05 Z66 LT in 06 with 24000 miles on it.  It will be turning 78000 soon and I have not had one problem with it.
 
Ouch, that's painful. My 05 has almost 180k on it & hasn't had 1/2 those problems yet.
