Live in Ft. Lauderdale - travel up through 3 counties north and west to the other coast of FL. Let's say my ipod and NAV will get a lot of work. 500 miles in my first week.

Just passed 10k miles, and I've had the car for six months exactly to the day.

I will be driving less though because I've moved closer to work...

Owned mine for 1 month and 3700 miles. Yeh my commute is almost all highway 154 miles roundtrip daily not including lunch, so I'll probably break 40k miles a year. OUCH. If you gotta do it, do it with style...

I did a quick calc. Looks like maybe 3500 miles a year. Huh? Probably will have the car in the garage when I die and someone will be amazed at yet another old man who had a great car and never drove it!

Might have to do somethin' about that. Yeah, guess I'll go to the store with it!!! Bye.

92 mile round trip to work ... so a quick calc puts me at +30K plus a year!

Oh well, I bought it to drive... and what a fun car she is to drive
