I had redone my driveway a while back by a reputable concrete/mason buddy. He said most dont do it deep enough to save money. He said concrete flooring should be minimum 4inch depth for most application... but driveways should be 6" min to withstand weight. Also there should be expansion gaps every so many feet to prevent cracking.
