Well, I usually don't start posts, but I had to acknowledge Maddy's 100, 000 mile mark. She hit the mark taking me to work in style yesterday.

Yeah, we've had our share of frustrations, but overall it's been a great ride. Since I last posted my annoyance at mechanical failure, she's taken me to Oklahoma and back (about 1200 miles round trip) twice; to Albuquerque and back twice (about 500 miles round trip); to Balmorrhea, TX (600 miles round trip) and just last weekend to San Antonio (1300 miles round trip), and not a single complaint. She just cruises up to highway speed, settles in, and flies.

Here's to Madelyn and all the members' sweet MCs. Hope you all have as much fun with yours as I have with mine.

Congratulations on the milestone.

Treat her to a car wash if you're able.

Thanks guys. Her reward was a day at the "spa". Full scheduled maintenance, fresh Mobil 1 oil change, tire rotation, hand wash and wax and finally hand detail, inside and out.

Congrat's on the milestone. My '01 SS LE had 116,000 when I upgraded to the Intimidator SS, and have put 57,000 on him in the last 1 1/2 years. I estimate I'll hit the 100,000 mi mark exactly 1 year from now.
Hope Madelyn treats you well the next 100,000 mi. Are using the Mobil 1 Extended Performance oil? How do you like the Bridgestone tires?
