Re: Who has the lowest odometer?

I have 87K miles on both the engine and the body of my '99. 50K miles in the first three years I had it, and it was my only car, then 37K in the last 6 years.

I started having some crazy problems with the brakes in the Cougar when I first got a second car... I now drive it to work from time to time just to abuse it a bit to keep them working fine.

2nd grade math FTL....

(2008 - 1980 = 28 years, not 38)

Still though, thats very nice mileage for an older vehicle.
