Cool Too Many miles way too fast....

Today I turned 10,000 miles on my 2000 model L. It will be 6 months tomorrow when I got her. So I guess what I am wondering is if I am the only one facing this delima of loving to drive the truck soo much or am I a lone wolf once again.

BTW, this is leading me to selling my 85 Bronco 4x4 and purchasing a newer Jeep to drive all the time and park the L for a while, esp winter.

Thanks.
Eric

I know what you mean. I'm at 12K after a 3-28-00 delivery. All of those 100-and-something-or-other mile trips to Sealy to race sure do add up...not to mention the trip to St.Louis for WFC. Oh well...I bought it to drive it.

10,300 miles since April 30, 00. Too many miles, not enough time to put on more.

Man & to think I was upset that mine just rolled over to 8,000 this weekend & I got mine on 3-19-99. Only drive on nice weekends & never in the winter.

Well, unfortunately I think that I'm the top mileage so far on this thread. Took delivery on 3-6-00, and turned 15K this morning. Living 30 miles from work, plus trips to Hallsville or Ennis, and it adds up quick.

It is very obvious that Speedin Bob, 1BadL and SVT54SC are not doing their part to make the gas companies richer
