If you have 100k miles on your car and drive almost exclusively in high traffic city type areas, what is the equivalent to a car that is almost all highway and county road type miles?

It *could* be 300,000 miles. Some people who drive cars for a living on highways have 300,000 miles on their cars, and they aren't dropping several thousand for upkeep each year.

I have heard that it is hard to come up with a ratio since some people will drive three minutes to get to, say, the gay bookstore, two times a week, which is bad on the engine, brake pads, etc. Better to walk to that gay bookstore. Just don't try to convert the rest of us into being gay, or at the very least, keep that out of the ***** neighborhoods. You know? I'm all for people having their rights, but we all don't have to live together. It's like the Israelis and the Palestinians, or the Israelites and the Canaanites and Phoenicians.

Is it after the work day when traffic doesn't matter because everyone is mostly home and doesn't care? or during rush hour?

Is your car new 2025 or ancient 2024?

Did you trade your lemon car in last year for a new generational model?

Do you belong to any car clubs that ignore bad performance because it has 20" rims, ground effects and a spoiler option?

Just asking a question bumper sticker on your car?

These things matter.
