Mine has only seen about 700 miles added so far this year, of those 300 were put on last sat alone.

Up around 3000 and climbing with a couple of trips upcoming and we didn't make S2KCAdays thi year

Other than a battery failure in Quebec City running well with the usual occasional drinking of oil they sometimes do

AND it is not the DD

During the summer, it is my daily driver (except on rainy days).

Even if mine was my daily driver it would not get a lot of miles. 95% of the time I work from home so don't put many miles on any of the cars.

So, by default mine is a Garage Queen, but only due to the fact that I don't do much drive much now and when I do, I try to use the other cars to so that they don't sit too long without being moved.

I'll be driving Betty tomorrow and maybe through the rest of the week. We've gotten one of those unusual summer patterns where the temps range from mid 60's to low 80's - in July with no rain in the forecast. We don't usually see that spread until September.

I've maybe put 300 miles on the car this year but I relish every one I can get. The car is now 14 years old with 67K plus miles and it's driving better than when I bought it. I'm convinced if you take care of these cars they will go 25 years easy.
