Most weeks I'm just shy of 100 miles.
My average over a year though is probably arround 200-300

32.3 miles one way to work every day, and add an extra 4 miles daily during the semester (college is almost right on my drive to work).
I've had my car since February and have 13K on it already.

One of the ways I "Hypermile" is I got a job close to me and have a 5.4 mile commute.

This year I've put less than 50L (13 US gal.) of fuel in the Firefly ... but I also haven't taken any big road trips in 2010. Might go to the east coast in the fall...
Almost all my local travel has been by bicycle - and we've had great weather this spring/summer.
I answered 0-50 miles.

200-250 miles per week, just for work and seeing friends. I fill up about 2-3 times a week  |

About 480 mi/wk here, mostly commute to work. vinny1989, I hear you there. When I was driving the truck I would put $20 in every other day so it didn't feel as painful... now $27 gets me at least a week's worth of driving... |

Ha ha, that's egg-zactly what I do, except I think it's every 3rd day on average. I don't top off the tank, I fill the tank from the 1/4 mark to the 3/4 mark all the time. That puts me in the range of ~5 gallons, so I can stay in the $20 range.

Interesting how the poll is going now. The greatest groups are the under 50 and over 500. It seems that we either minimize driving, or try to get the best efficiency possible.

25 mile round commute to work at the moment, 5 days a week, plus 2 large 100+ trips per week to see my and her parents.
Moving house soon, so going to a 50 mile round trip for work, but thankfully closer to said parents- meaning less long distance..
Except I'll probably start touring the West Coast of Scotland again...
