? Monte Miles Check > Most/Least ?<
#11
I agree, they are great commuter cars. They are comfortable and not that bad on gas for how big they are.

A car really has to repeatedly fail for me to give up (do you hear me 1979 Capri??) on it. The Monte is not without it's faults but I put up with the little things as long as it does its main job.
So we'll be together for another set of tires and who knows when the transmission will go out, that 195,000 miles is on the original one.
One question I have is what others average speed is? The DIC in the 7th gen has an average speed calculator in it and mine was 42 the last time I looked. I've never zeroed it out in 6 years.

Understanding the Metric System
- 1 million microphones = 1 megaphone
- 1 million bicycles = 2 megacycles
- 2000 mockingbirds = 2 kilomockingbirds
- 10 cards = 1 decacards (or is it 52 cards = 1 deck-a-cards?)
- 1/2 lavatory = 1 demijohn
- 1 millionth of a fish = 1 microfiche
- 453.6 graham crackers = 1 pound cake
- 10 rations = 1 decoration
- 10 millipedes = 1 centipede
- 3-1/3 tridents = 1 decadent
- 10 monologs = 5 dialogues
- 2 monograms = 1 diagram
- 8 nickles = 2 paradigms

130,000 on"Lady Jasper" the '00 SS which we bought new. We've been through too much together to ever sell. It would be like selling a daughter... Lol.
169,000 on "Black Knight" the '03 SS that I bought last June with all intentions of fixing and flipping. I'm responsible for less than 500 of those miles. Resurrection is now complete. Although I've become attached, I'm already looking for the next gen. 6 Monte project and I don't have room for three gen. 6's. "Black Knight" might have to go.
