What a milestone...never thought I would hit this so fast. About 98% freeway miles, what a joy it has been with this car!

Yes I'm sure it was 80k miles of unadulterated fun, but still depressing. You will never get the valueof it's worth. Just as well to drive it till the wheels fall of now.

Man you're out of gas too! How much money have you spent on gas for 80K miles?

Good questions I guess if I averaged 20mpg thats 4000 gallons! @ what $2.50 (today's rate) $10K!!! and is probably a low estimate, I remember that last summer at $5 per gallon was rough!!!
