i probably put on 80k or more. I learned to drive in the Monte, and took it everywhere when I went out. It was 100k when I got it legally into my name.

Well Happy Monday Everyone. Doctor said grandpa would be in the hospital till friday when I was there last night. Amazingly enough I got a call today and he was released and is at my Mom's house sleeping. Lets hope that he can get some strength back.

Robyn I think a thread with your christmas card would be awesome. Of course you can always mail me one too.

Todd that wouldnt be such a bad idea, however I would have to get one made up, which I can do I have connections to the printing department here at a local store! I'll have to hide her "bad" side (you know, the side with the DENT in the bumper) and i'm hoping it snows before christmas, but i'm also hoping it doesn't, because, like, my tires are CRAP. i'm thinking about returning them to goodyear and prorating the mileage on those to get a better set of like goodyear eagles or something that has a bit better traction, these ones are all over the road. My mystiques on the back are better tires but they're a bit worn....

33,900 to be exact. Thats about 3400 miles a year before I got it and I put about 8000 miles on in a year. My work is only 10 minutes away and I dont do alot of long distance traveling.

EDIT: Hey look, 1500 posts!
