manholt Report post Posted February 27, 2018 2010 coach, purchased in 2013, took possession January 2014 with 27,600 miles, now have 73,000, about 15,000 a year! Let the good times roll ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mweiner Report post Posted February 27, 2018 Thanks for your replies, I figured it was around 10- 12,000 miles per year, give or take...on average, sometimes more sometimes less.. I expect that we'll do about 10,000 miles per year... Since I purchased my rig last May 2017... have gone about 14,000 miles...of course, the USA trip last fall was almost 11,000 miles .... I certainly don't expect to do a cross country trip like that every year... More local regional trips... Enjoy your rigs... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
elkhartjim Report post Posted February 27, 2018 The average rv'er will do 4-5000 miles per year. Remember, the average rv owner is not retired and with 4 weeks of vacation and weekends it's hard to put 10,000 miles per year on an rv. I average around 8,000.

manholt Report post Posted February 27, 2018 Then there is the average retired RV'r who we call "Snow Birds". Most, use their RV to go from their House, to where they spend winter, back to their house & that's it. Then you have the ones in the South, who does the opposite in Summer! A lot of variables Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hermanmullins Report post Posted March 1, 2018 Kay, You may already know this but I use my Garmin GPS for my Speed indicator it is more accurate than my Speedometer. Herman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
