Good morning guys and Happy Thanksgiving! Got my coffee and getting ready to watch Detroit's Thanksgiving Parade. Heading to my Dad's later for dinner, getting our family's four new Boston Terrier pups together for the first time. Hope everyone has a great day!

Good morning guys. Just hit 94k miles on the Monte on the way into work this morning.

Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving, I can't believe it's almost December already. We got our Christmas tree and inside decorations up yesterday.

My Monte just went over 76K! Drove it down to Monroe, LA for a football game. First time it's been on a road trip in a couple of years. Hope everyone had a good holiday!

Good morning everyone! Hope Thanksgiving was good for everyone.

My Monte is at 170K. Wish I could have kept miles down but it is my daily driver. Currently running good and still turns heads. The interior is immaculate. I love the car but may start looking for a 7th gen SS. I want the V8.

Good morning guys. Suppose to be 61 degrees today! Winterized the wife's Mustang and lawnmower yesterday and am doing the Monte today (or tomorrow depending on how I feel).

Your 01 could probably go 300k no problem. BUT, if you do go for an 06-07, you won't regret it. I love mine. Only thing I can say is find the right one that's been taken care of and not beat on with under 100k miles. Watch the transmission and oil burning, that's the two potential weak spots on the 06-07s.
