MCTalley,
WOW! Those are some impressive miles. What happened this year, you seem to be staying parked longer?

We average somewhere around 2-3k miles per year.
Less this year... hopefully we'll make up the difference next. :)

Since we went FT the first of Feb this year, TV has 21,000 miles more on it. Not done yet. 8500 of the 21k towing. The rest was sight-seeing, buying groceries and hauling friends & relatives.

We didn't travel as much the first part of this year. We have been sitting still a bit longer. On the other hand, we're currently in South Dakota, heading to Kentucky, then Tennessee, then Texas, then probably Clarksville, Indiana (our selling dealer, time for the one year check-up), then down to Alabama and Florida. Might have a couple other side trips in there somewhere. All said, though, we'll probably still only push about 16-17,000 miles this year.

MCTalley,
That's awesome. We can't wait until we're able to do those kinds of trips. In August we squeezed in AZ, NM, CO, UT, NV and then back to No. CA in just 14 days.

We will have had our trailer for a year and have about 8K miles on it. Mostly weekends but a 2 week trip to Washington state was in there also. Not sure how many total trips but we try to make it 2 a month from March through October, and others as the weather permits.

Part of our "sitting still" was leaving the trailer parked in AL while we flew to Hawaii in March for 10 days and Washington State in April for 8 days. We definitely have not put as many miles on this year in part to Malcolm's job allowing him to work remote so no round trips back to an office. :)

Next week we'll be adding 250 miles for the Colorado HOC Rally at Mountaindale (Colorado Springs).

And then another 1500 or so miles on our Prowler in October when we go to Vegas for the 2016 Heartland Owner's Club National Rally!

Viva Las Vegas!

I would say that we now put between 8-10,000 miles a year towing the trailer. considerably less than a couple of years ago.

100K! WOW!
We did FLA twice, SC twice and the Smoky Mountains and a few weekend trips in between this year. So I'd say between 9-10K.

We left Ohio July 23rd and took the Hi Line Route 2 from St Ignace MI to Everett WA. So far, according to my spreadsheet, we have put on 5998.4 miles total, 3175.4 of that was towing. Right now we are in Eugene OR. We are slowly Zig Zagging our way to San Diego for the winter. Should be there around the middle of October. I'm guessing about another 1500 miles towing to get to San Diego. Then about another 3800 towing to get back to Ohio for the summer. We usually do about 6000-8000 actual towing miles on the Bighorn every year. And Enjoy every mile.
