Topic starter

Hello scotty , i just got a 2021 lexus RX 350 and I accepted a new job where i drive 100 miles total per day ,5 days a week . Should i get an additional car and split the miles on both. Will the lexus go bad eventually! Or should i just drive it and enjoy the car . 

I really value your opinion please let me know ! 


Clarification: How many years do you plan to keep the vehicle?


I am thinking 5-7 at least !

Just drive it. Why sink additional money money into ANOTHER depreciating asset and insurance.

52 weeks in a year x 500 miles/week = 26,000 miles for work.  Then you got mileage for errands, personal, weekend so let’s say 30,000 miles a year.  You said 5-7 years so that’s 150,000-210,000 miles over that time period.  If you go 10 years, that’s about 300,000 miles, and these are conservative numbers.  Yeah, just drive and enjoy the RX350.


Thank you for explaining, this sounds good to me , i feel less guilty 😉
