Households with just one vehicle drove an average of about 11,100 miles per year, while households with more than five vehicles traveled a total of about 41,800 miles; each additional vehicle within a household had less average use. About two-thirds of households have either one or two vehicles.U.S. households with more vehicles also tend to drive their primary vehicle more than households with fewer vehicles.
