I can't speak to the price, but both Angela and I routinely put 20K
or more miles a year on each of our cars, mostly commuting.  My car,
which is the vacation and ski-mobile often gets 24-25K in a year.


Not everyone has a 5 mile commute to work (in fact, I claim that very
short commutes are HARDER on a car).
