Zero according to the odometer, it hasn't worked in over 50 years....LOL. If I had to guess less then 20 miles.

Purchased Dec.'20 and managed over 1100 miles. Did 120 mi yesterday, New Years Day. Drove down to Palm Beach. The cooler weather is awesome here but not sure what the summer will permit!
I'm really enjoying this car!

140,000 over the last 25 years but this year with COVID under 250 miles. Least ever since I have owned an A. This year I hope to get back on the road.

I normally drive my A around my area 100-125 miles a year. That's pretty good seeing that it sat for 30 years after my Dad had put it away.

That's a strange looking Model A.

Wednesday night we had thin coat of ice covered with 1/2" of snow yesterday afternoon. About noon today, I drove 1930 Sedan 3 miles on gravel road to circle community. Gravel road was slick where shaded but otherwise OK, fun drive.

Put 2084 miles on our Speedster. That was with no club tours. The wife and I would decide to go for a drive, pick a general direction to drive in, and try to get lost.

I had my 1930 Tudor since May of 2020. Got to know it and the little quirks (e.g. water pump and condenser). Water pump was replaced with a leakless type. I did not do too bad last year...about 360 miles. In 2021, and prior to the MAFCA NH tour, I want to drive it 3 weeks straight and ensure all is "sorted". Let's hope for all of us to get more miles in for 2021. Happy New Year

Sorry to say only 63 miles. Never needed to put gas in the tank.

I don't see where the Title mentions "Model A". It states "How Many 2020 Miles Did You Drive".

I agree with you Katy. The question is asked on a Model A Ford discussion site so the premise is people who drive Model A Fords would respond.

MARC mileage for 2020, 4810. Roads were quite empty during the Summer and Fall!

That’s way more than all the way across America. Just about there and back.
