RE: mileage...
I put just over 7grand on it the first summer I had the car.
Then she hibernated for the winter. This summer I have put 11 grand more and I still have a minimum of 6 weeks left to drive it. Longer if the weather stays nice.
I'm fine with the miles until it hits a milestone like 10,000, 20,000 etc.
I am approaching 20,000 and will surely hit it before summer ends.
Oh well, they ave all been fun miles.

RE: mileage...
I just had my 1 year anniversarythis week and I'm at 5200.I drive it every day...but I just don't have very far to go to get to work, school or anything else I need either. Since the day I drove her off the lotshe's never been outside a 35 mile radius of my house.
ETA: *I* have been outside that radius, but my 'stang isn't good for road trips...there's 4 of us in my family. We're all more comfortable in my husband's vehicle for longer distances.

RE: mileage...
I am at 48,000 miles on it and bought it about 13 months ago with 10,000. I drive A LOT to and from work and for play, but this car was built to run hard and long. Mine is an 05, first of the breed and I believe that they put every ounce of energy into building these cars, they are strong. A few little stone dings are the only thing I have to show the age. I plan on running this thing for a long time.

RE: mileage...
2 months and 4200 miles on the DD already, I put about 22-24k on a car per year, so I am looking at the stang to keep up with the mileage my old accords ran, I hope that with regular maintenance it will be a 10 year car!

whats up everyone...i was just wondering if you guys and gals have the same anxiety that i have when i watch the miles on the odometer going up? for some reason, i feel like im putting a crapload of miles on my car, even though i havent been driving it that much. maybe its more of a mental thing, but it drives me f'in nuts.
