just hit 100k in my 2003!!!

Bought it in Feburary 2003. You'd never know that I have so many miles on without looking at the odometer. Still no problems. Anyone else with a 5.5 close to 100k yet?

50k a year, baby! I write off about 38k a year though. That's 14k in write-offs (or 5k in returns).

I doubt anyone will get close to 100k in a 5.5 gen any time soon. The only thing that sucks about driving so much (besides the gas, maintenance, insurance, paint chips, tires, value loss of the car, ect, ect) is that I get to get all the bad problems first. Luckily for all of you, I haven't had any yet!

If anyone wants to trade an '02 or an '03 for mine even-up, let me know. You could have a nicely broken-in max instead of your new, too-tight, less than 50k mile max by tonight!

...and you're 18?!?!? Did mom and dad buy the front lip and side markers as well? These things are a little pricy for an 18 year old to buy new.

Mom and dad bought the lip, yes. I bought the rest. (I don't mean I bought the car by saying that.) I'd be ashamed of myself not to give credit where credit is due.

I'm in sales. I spend about three and a half days a week on the road. That's why I hit about 50k a year.

48k on my 03. I try and save miles and drive the 95 more often, but I got the 03 with 39k on it, its fun to drive though.

Are you going to get headers for it soon? My advice, get em!


Well tell us how it goes.
