Etymology
Mileage comes from mile, which goes back to Latin mille meaning 'thousand', because a mile once meant about 1,000 paces, and the ending -age means 'amount'. So mileage originally meant the 'amount of miles', and that is why we now use it for how many miles a car can travel for a certain amount of fuel.
