do you drive more during the holidays?
ive been putting well over 100km's a day for the last few days. (finding a half decent suit in this town is impossible)
do you guys care about the mileage you put on the car? sometimes i avoid taking it just to avoid ticking up the odometer. i put 150kms today, and i didnt accomplish a single thang!
anyway, i just remembered, 42k service is next week....

I already drive alot, so the holidays are actually less demanding. Otherwise though, I bought the car to drive it, so I don't think too much about it. I've been buring through cars lately though, so I hope to keep the TL (and my S2K) for longer than I usually do...anything over 4 years would be great...we'll see though.

I always try to watch how much miles I put on my car. But it's like a CATCH22 - love to drive it but hate to rack up the miles. I'll live with the mileage for now!

Mr TL, I feel you. I hate to drive extra miles and not accomplish a single thing. I do watch my miles. I try to drive less these days. It just snowed a foot here and my car is sitting clean and dry in the garage. I'll just drive my dads car for the next week.

There is no way I could possibly drive more on holidays! I've jacking up hella miles driving to clients. So, holidays are the time for my car to chill and kick back.
