Just went over 2K in mine last weekend. Wish I could drive it more, but the temps dropped again and this time with rain. Don't want to push it with summer tires in wet sub 40° weather.

I guess being able to drive on the autobahn makes up for your lack of miles.

For me, 1,000 miles means it's time to trade it in or sell it! I hate when cars get old and broken.

It's barely broken in and you're getting rid of it just when the fun begins. LOL

I was hoping the jester hat smiley was indicative of my goofiness in the post. Getting rid of a car at 1k miles is insane...

I get rid of cars at 2,000 miles.




Man, I just can't be serious tonight.

It's what happens when you get a woman in a room with a lot of olive oil and...well, you get the idea.

Picked up on 8/21/11 and just about to hit 2200. It wasn't stored this winter since we had almost NO snow. It was driven on the 40+ degree days we had.
