What to do? Too many miles!!!!!!!
Well i am kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place. i still owe money on my car and the miles are climbing fast!! i bought it Dec 23rd, 06 at 98,XXX and 7 months later i have 111,XXX. I don't know what I should do? Thecar runs excellent and i haven't had a problems(knock on wood). Should istart savin for a new engine? Take it back to stock, sell it, and put all my goodies on a new one? Or sell it as is and start all over? I cant see getting much for it bone stock, with the 3.73s. i need some intellectual advice!!!

another 40,000??? you think so? But then i'll really not get anything for it! And i go to the track just about every week and i'm scared to keep putting money into it w/so many miles.

if you dont mind me asking, how much do you owe? I can imagine if you sell it now you will be upside down....I think you have a good 50,000 miles left in her....Alot of people have high mileage stangs and they run great.

The car will run forever as long as you take care of it....Mine has 70K on it and its running strong and I plan on keepin her for a long time so Im buyin a short block and building it up so when the day she dies I already have another engine ready to go..If you plan on keepin it for a while like me, just start building a short or longblock and go from there
