Took my baby home on July 3rd (from San Antonio to Houston). Since then I've had to go back to S.A. which is why I have 2,475 now! Ouch, hope to not keep adding this much mileage at this rate.

I got mine in early June and am at about 2600 miles already,
2 road trips so far, but I still use my old car alot to give the tl a break and when I know I'll be parking on the street or a crouded lot.

Purchased 4/25 - 4600 miles now.

Wow, that was fast. I'm driving the old beater now to keep the mileage down. It's sure tough keeping the TL-S as a garage queen.

Also running Mobil 1 5W-30 Synthetic. Still on the first tank after oil change @ 400 miles (mostly highway).

March 13th with 8000,

Just replaced the Valvoline 5/30 with Redline 5w20. I think I can feel the difference. Hopefully will see milage increase a bit.

I'm with Samzilla - just picked mine up 48 hours ago, and have 200 wonderful miles already! Can't wait to open it up a little, but I guess I'll have to wait just a little longer..
