At least you're getting your moneys worth.

I on the other hand, have put 8600 miles on in 5 years. :nonono:
At this point I think she has officially become garage art. :nonono:

When I bought mine in August it had 31 thousand on it and now 6 months later it has 44000. I am on tap for a 20000 mile year. It is my dd and can't afford to buy another dd. I have to drive 50 miles a day mon-fri to work and where ever else on the weekends.
