    On 2-22-18 I purchased my VMG with only 34,216 miles which is low miles to me. However, since February we have gone on 3 TBN trips (Oklahoma, All New England States, and Tennessee). After seeing so many wonderful places, my VMG has now moved up to 43,034 miles. Looking forward to putting thousands more and seeing more of our Great USA.

      Since posting this I've been doing some long range planning. If I set a goal of enjoying RDRIDER for another 89,000 miles for a total of 100,000 miles, it will take a little less than 45 years at our current mileage accumulation rate (MAR). So, I've made a note to celebrate that occasion on our calendar in 2063. I'll only be 128 yrs old then. It's nice to have a plan!

        The Club can have exciting discussions about all the things you didn't do and the hours in the garage looking at your car. (-:

              I'm making a wild guess that this comment was addressed to me. My wife does not drive anymore and RDRIDER is not quite up to pulling our 30 ft travel trailer around the US and Canada. Other than that, we drive her everywhere! With great joy!

Tucked her in for Winter yesterday, just in time since we got seven inches of snow here today. We plan to drive her frequently beginning in the Spring. Our T-Bird May be low mileage, but we are both over 60 years young and plan to enjoy this car until the wheels fall off of us or it!

                          JPLO1 Paperweight? Just kidding with you...do you have multiple Tbirds you drive and you stashed that one away? I couldn't do it...mine calls to me whenever it is sunny, Can't help myself; I slink down the stairs to just look at it sometimes. I know...I'm obsessed!

                            Rays 007 #15 : I am so happy for you! ENJOY!!! In my humble opinion, it is still low mileage. I see you are coming as well to the IN trip...can't wait to meet and check out your VMG!

                              Our 2003 DSB now has 39000 miles on it, not bad for a 16 year car. Only had 17000 when we got it, has been in 30 states so far.
                              Our 2004 Wino (Merlot) has 59000 miles, but it has been in all lower 48 states.
                              And yes, both are daily drivers, Don't even have to store them in winter!!! Winter?, what's winter.
