I age my car in miles, since I drive so much and go through them so quickly. My girl turned 45 this week!!

I drive 50 miles a day, just driving to and from work. I bought her with 6 miles on her on 1/15/07. It's a lease, that I wisely prepaid additional miles on for 25,000 a year. I'm pretty impressed at my ability to calculate the mileage this well, the last two cars I ended up with huge overages.

I have an 8 mile round trip commute.

If me and my Dad didn't always eat out on my days off, it'd probably be 10K less....

I'm glad I didn't take my parents advice and get a lease back when I bought it. The car's been paid off for 4 years now, is still in decent shape, and should continue to be for a while with how little I use it....

45 is the new 35!
