Can't stop driving the dang thing!
Yesterday I took the car for a nice 44 mile no-particular-reason jaunt. And along the way the odometer crossed past 13,852. (BTW I could say something about "winter driving" in Houston but I'll refrain! )
What's the significance? Less than 6 months ago, on June 29th, a Reliable Carriers truck unloaded this puppy in front of our home, with 12,852 miles. I'm fortunate to have a couple of other toys too, but... - the '93 5.0 Mustang has been driven ~900 miles in ~18 months, and I've now put it back on sale because I'm just not getting the pleasure out of it that I anticipated. - the Factory Five Cobra replica is now ~7 years old but I've averaged about 600 miles/year on it. Still a blast to drive but super impractical for most days. The ZR-1 is the weekend car keeper! (Pic is an aside - with the injectors replaced, I can now pull up to my local gas station instead of driving 65 miles round trip to get no-name ethanol-free gas!) |
