Have you figured out the average age?  I recall a statistic that the typical RV is driven 7000 miles/year.

Our 2003 had 23K when we bought it in 2004; it now has just over 90K (our 2006 and 2011 trips, were all closer to home than usual).

Toby is a 94 with 95000 miles on him. Not newsworthy but for the sake of data collection.

There was a couple at the MC GV in October who got their 45 year MC award and their 600,000 mile MC award.  They were just about to celebrate their 61st wedding anniversary.  All very amazing acomplishments.  They had several Foretravels.  I guess they were hooked.  They averaged more than 13,300 miles a year over 45 years!

I will be very happy to get to 100,000 miles.

The average age of our coaches, our dedication to keep them running and the amount we use them reflects well on our community.

Happy to be here with all of you.  Roger

Coming back from our last outing last week the speedometer turned over 11,000 miles. (speedometer replaced when we bought the coach 2 years ago.)

Actual mileage would be 94,700

I love excel......

Updated numbers

74 coaches          9,539,450 miles.    128,911 mile average    6,748 miles per year average    20 year old average

Largest years reporting    1995  11 units        2001    9  units    1989 & 1993  7 units each
Only 1 unit newer than 2003 and nothing older than a 1989

My coach has averaged only 3867 miles per year, which puts me in 11th place for least miles/per/year.

Did the factory have an issue in 1998 as only one has reported and every other year around it has at least a half a dozen?

Steve.

PS.  Can you tell the importing into Canada is a little slow right now.

Bought our coach in late July with 153,600.    Recently did the first 6000 mile oil change after 7 months of ownership. New rear brakes and new alternator. Brakes were no surprise, I new that going in.

At this rate, it will be 10,000 ish in the first year. Love it, but DW loves it even more. She's excited to be able to take her "lifestyle" with her.

At those miles per month, were ahead of of the curve :)  hope to stay there.
