I keep track of it daily.  I do travel out of town for meetings quite a bit in addition to trips to office and showings so the miles/week can vary widely.

Nope, annually and then my CPA does the standard % formula. 

Not as many miles traveled as I used to, since I walk to work since my 8/2015 office relocation; my office is across the street from my HOA .

I have a small spiral notebook in the door that I record when I start out, and when I get back home.    I drive about 500 miles per month, but sometimes that changes depending on what clients I have that month.

Hi Peter - We used to, but our CPA suggested several years ago that we'd be better off going on actual expense and depreciation. Now he's decided that we would be better with mileage, but we can't do that until we get different cars, which isn't happening soon.

We sure do and always have for a variety of reasons including taxes and maintenance. Let me share our most recent app with you. It's not only free. It's unbelieveably accurate. We love it.

I use my Garmin to track my mileage. I download it to a spreadsheet at the end of each month for tax purposes. The amount I drive varies. I will tell you I'm about to hit 180k miles on my vehicle. My last one went over $200k and I sold it. Now, I'm looking to buy another car.
