My wife drives about once a week, probably less on average. She has a 2013 Honda CR-V, only 15,000 miles on it. We live in Minnesota, so have cold temps, but the car in a garage. The car always starts. We've replaced the battery once just due to longevity.

Every 3 days? No way.



15k miles on a 2013 CR-V? Enjoy the last car you'll ever own! I assume you know this, but some of the maintenance items for that car are 8 years I think; worth checking the manual to find out!


Haha, yep. She refers to it as the literal "just driven to the grocery store by a little old lady" car (because it's basically that and Home Depot). She even got the lowest trim level (on purpose) so it doesn't have anything fancy (no BT radio, no keyless start, no big display, etc.).

Good point on the maintenance. I do get the oil changed, again more by time than distance, and I'll look up the other stuff now that you've mentioned it, thanks.


Tires should be first on the list!
