Bought 2016 CPO in February 2019 at 30k now at 156k. No issues just brake rotors and tires to change is all.

Wow! 120,000+ miles driven in only 3 years, 4 months (40 months). That's an average of 100 miles driven each day of the month or 3,000 miles a month! Likely 2 to 4+ hours of seat time every day!

I would ask why you drive so much, but I'm afraid you'd tell me and I'd be shocked...

I have bout 42,000 on my 2018 GS 350 Sport. It would have been a lot more without the pandemic as I spent a lot of time working from home. I never cared about the mileage as I keep my cars for 10 years or more. Enjoy your car.

haha honestly when I tried to calculate it myself I’m shocked too! I live in San Jose but commute to Hayward for work weekdays which is 75 miles round trip but after work I usually get food or drinks in another city (Cupertino or Milpitas) that’s like 10-11 miles way so another 22 miles round trip. Then add in a few road trips to Sacramento, Reno, weekend trips to San Francisco or Oakland it adds up pretty fast.

Problem with the GS is u can put a million miles and u don't even feel it. This car just wants to keep rolling.

I lease (and for the first time will be buying out this one, 2020 ES 300h Lux!) so I have
been conscious of the miles. Found an excellent App, Leasecrunch which with minimal
effort provides a graph, over/under and dollar consequences. Recommended.

Honestly, I wish it were different. I'd love to be putting more miles on it. Due to the pandemic, I'm still working from home, so there is no element of commuting going on. Usually, if I am running to the store or to pick up/drop off the kids, I take the Tundra, as it's already out on the driveway whereas the GS is tucked away, clean, in the garage.

That's the gas station, not the car. lol

$60 fill up yesterday, just bit under half tank. $6.48/gallon here. A simple road trip is definitely a lot more expensive now.

We're not far behind you guys. I paid $6.29 a gallon for the GS the other day, making for an $85 bill. The good news is that I drive so little that it is likely to last me a couple months!
