How did you get so lucky?
I walk a mile if I have to. I look and look for the right space every time too.

Let me just say, as a fellow Pittsburgh boy, I'm very disappointed! No that does not mean you baby your stang, it means you don't drive your car properly. Get a Prius if you want to putts around town under 3,000 RPMs.

Smile

Bought mine to enjoy it.

Since I consider myself in mid- life crisis I get on it when I can, and it ALWAYS puts the smile on my face....even after a crappy day. Sooo that being said easily 20-50 a week

0-5 I dont like the rpm's over 5k with a cold engine and work is only a 10 minute drive away. So only in the weekends every now and then for me.

No reason to be disappointed Tom. Once I start taking it to the track. I'll be driving it properly
