Keeps the miles off of it and you can actually save a lot on gas. -------------------- Support our troops!

I put about 5,000 - 6,000 miles on the Cobra a year and about 30,000 on the beater Taurus. You save a lot of wear n tear. Do it. -------------------- Rest In Peace Juan Moya "The King Cobra" 11/16/81 - 8/20/05 We Will Never Forget You Posts: 649 | From: San Jose | Registered: Oct 2002  |  : 1BAD2V Screwed and Sprayed Member # 2495 posted                              thank you guys for all your inputs...i might get a 1986 honda prelude for 1G (about 122,000 miles )...now i need to find one of those lame sticker with "My other car is a mustang"....lol:)) -------------------- 01 MG GT Some mods Posts: 552 | From: Los Angeles,CA | Registered: Feb 2003  |  : 166 Merlo FELONY MOTORSPORTS Member # 1549 posted                              I'm sure it's worth it, but remember, it's only a mustang. -------------------- '89 - Boss Coupe '70 - Drop Cutthang '68 - Cougnut '87 - 0166, Its real Posts: 3954 | From: Thebay | Registered: Jul 2002  |  : cheap ¯ Member # 858 posted                                 uh, my beater is another mustang... -------------------- 1965 Spyder GT Posts: 1358 | From: Maine | Registered: Feb 2002  |  : Maxoctane ¯ Member # 1466 posted                                 get a motorcycle -------------------- www.maxcarauto.com BUY/SELL/TRADE/FINANCE Posts: 332 | From: Martinez | Registered: Jun 2002  |  :
