I just rolled over 33,000!

Any oil you lose is probably through the pcv system.

Man, at the rate I'm going, I won't hit 177,777 for another 74 years, lol. Good to know I'll still be driving my '06 in 2084 at 101 years old!

Very impressive. Is she using any oil these days ?

Just a small point though, bought Sept 2005 = 2005 car, let's not fool ourselves with the whole "model year" rubbish.

I'm catching up

Still gets real great mileage ( when I drive slower than 70mph...)



I'm on the 7th oil change on mine...
oem battery let me down ,I replaced it with a Die Hard Gold, then discovered the Stock one was low on water, O well too late now,

the Motorcraft battery in my 2000 mustang is still going strong @ 171,000 miles on it.

yes, the electrolyte does not evaporate the water does, but since I had swapped it out already, it wasn't worth messing around with.

Cumming - 95% of the miles are work related

Maybe 1/2 quart between oil changes - usually not even enough to worry about

Drewsky - I change it every 4 - 5k
