how many miles were on your can when you got it
NEW FROM THE DEALER ONLY!
so how many miles were on your car. i had 43.
the reason i ask this is because most people i talk to had like 4, 6, 12, or some really low number like that. i think that my can was on a bunch of test drives. when i went on my test drive in the car, the salesman had to drive the car off the lot (there policy) because it is located on a really busy 4 lane road. but anyway, the salesman was ragging on the car alot. shifting hard and bringing the RPMs up high. and when i was driving he was telling me to get on it alot to feel the power, but i didnt, cuz it was new.
So, 15,000 miles later my TO bearing and rear end started giving me problems. you think it could be because of people beating the car before i got it.
so, what do you think.
