The Ryder trade name has been identified as having an indefinite useful life. Customer relationship intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, generally 10-16 years. We recorded amortization expense associated with finite lived intangible assets of approximately $8 million in both 2012 and 2011, and $3 million in 2010. The future amortization expense for each of the five succeeding years related to all intangible assets that are currently recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets is estimated to be as follows at December 31, 2012:
