As many have said here before, it really depends on the use case. Many have cars customized for various activities. They also essentially use their cars as mobile storage lockers--especially parents with children.

To the degree that vehicle depreciation is more miles-based than time-based, it's not even clear how much driving up utilization past a certain base usage really helps financially.
