    My vote includes both Goldilocks and Moondoggie. They both fall into the same category, so it should really be 2 votes.

      39,567 miles. I'll call that 40k, as it will be very soon.
      Purchased May 2010 with 28k miles. At 630 miles per month, 7,560 miles per year, I'm using it about 35% more than the original owners did.
      Daily and vacation driver, employed part-time.

          A little over 7,000 miles, but expect to give it more use this winter since I put the hardtop on it for the first time last month in several years.

            Soon to turn 56,000. Purchased new Nov, 2004 Average about 9,300 miles per year.

            To those of you with so little mileage how come you are not out & about more? The Bird is a excellent driver all year long. What are you saving it for?
            Go on get out there & enjoy that beautiful car.

                We have 3 cars and a motorcycle, but only 2 drivers (both retired) - enough said.

                  We have 5 cars for 2 drivers, 2011 Lexus GS350AWD, 2007 Saab 95 Aero, 2007 Saleen Mustang, 2005 Thunderbird IG, 2003 Thunderbird TR.
                  Tough to put mileage on them all so I bet you can tell which are the daily drivers and which get to sleep for 4 or 5 months a year.

                    When I bought mine in October of last year it had 75,375. I noticed last night it has 80,802. Less than 5000 miles per year on a daily driver isn't too bad IMHO. Once we have more time for road trips though, that will change.

                        I didn't take offense, Mike - I just wanted you to know why mine have such low mileage. Heck, my 12-yr-old Expedition still only has 45K on it! (I've been agoraphobic for a very long time).

                          The Agora booked its first national act, the Buckinghams, in 1968. For many years "Sundays at the Agora" showcased local original music groups and popular regional bands, which kept the club filled to capacity. The Pack, later known as Grand Funk Railroad, The Outlaws, ZZ Top, Rainbow Canyon , James Gang, Glass Harp, Foghat and The Rasberries all achieved national and international prominence after getting their "big break" playing the Cleveland Agora stage

                            Haha - Yes, I do, John, and I wish my phobia was related to that "Agora" - it would make it so simple, but alas...

                              Mike, no apology needed - I can take some joking. We also have the SC300 which was purchased new in 1995 that just turned 50,000 miles. It may be one of the lowest mileage SCs in the U.S.
