The average American male now drives an average of 16,550 miles a year with female drivers averaging at 10,142 miles a year. In Kentucky, the average driver travels 17,370 miles so you would need a higher than average mile usage when leasing a vehicle and with most leases starting from 10,000 miles per annum, you’re likely to go over. If you go over, you could be hit with an additional bill when turning in the vehicle at the end of your lease. Based on a 3-year lease with a 10k mileage per year, the average driver in Kentucky could be hit with an additional $552.75 bill at the end of your lease. Alternatively, taking out a high mileage lease could help prevent a large bill at the end of your lease and wouldn’t cost as much. There’s more to a high mileage lease allowance than that, here are some of the main benefits; Regulated & lower costs – With taking out a higher mileage lease, you know how much you’re paying a month to cover your travels whereas with going over and paying at the end of the lease, you could be paying more without fully knowing what the bill will be. Flexibility – The main benefit is the freedom a high mileage lease gives. You’re able to use your lease vehicle for everyday trips and have plenty of mileage free to travel from coast to coast if you wish.  Less sales tax – With most states, you’re able to deduct lease payments as an expense meaning you’ll pay less sales tax.
