It varies year to year but I believe around 300-400 miles a year. Earlier this month there was a Living History event around 45 miles from my home. Round trip for that event was 99 miles! It was a blast to drive!

I think that in principle we have to write down the mileage per week in a notebook. I try to run it every week so as not to leave it working for too long. It is important that other friends in this forum put their averages so that we have a base of what it's normal for those trucks that if are kept in a garage, they tend to run less. Mine is in the weather without a garage so I ride it easier.Best regards.

I’ve been between 2000-2500 per cckw for a few years. Have to check my log books to know exact numbers. Just hit 20000 miles back in august on my first cckw.

Between shows, parades and an occasional ice cream run, I usually accumulate around 200 miles per year.

Best Regards...

I think I will have to increase my mileage, for example twice a week.
