Default I bought BLUE VELVET one year ago...

So today (April 9) marks my first year with my '05 XF. I bought her with only 2,850 on the odometer. She now has 5,990. That number breaks down to 3,140 for the year....or 262 per month...or 65 per week. Yeah, she still looks brand new and has not seen any rain or snow in a year!

After 3 1/2 yrs. Olga's 'Baby' is reaching 29,000 (today, as a matter of fact). I hate to have that much mileage on her. The good news is that Olga has been letting me drive her car more since our daughter has been using the Durango while her car gets body damage repaired.

I hope you are still smilin' while you're drivin'.

Miles are going on mine slower than ever, the new life iwth Hope means no driving the Roadster monday thru friday.

Mine had 13,351 on it when I got it on July 6, 2009. It's up to something around 21,400 now. But I turned 21,000 back around Thanksgiving... so you see, I'v slowed way down on driving it. (Sure, winter had a lot to do with that as well).

I have about 36,500 on mine now. I bought mine with about 19K on the odometer in August '08. Most of the mileage is from driving to the Dragon twice (7,000+ miles and once to the TMS event in Ft Worth last year (~1600 miles). If you take that mileage away, that's about 8500 miles in 20 months. Not too bad I guess.

Bought my '05 Black, limited coupe, in August, '09 with 6,800 miles.
So far, I am at 8,400 so you can see I pretty much got me a new toy.
