The white BMW is Knut (after the German polar bear). Our Mach 1 was named Mack. I wonder just how popular the practice of car naming is.<br /><br />You look good for your age, Kip. :)Jeannettenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3654249198685236449.post-22610292970456075962015-06-11T08:40:52.569-07:002015-06-11T08:40:52.569-07:00I have always gone well above the national average...I have always gone well above the national average on car mileage. When we first got married, I had to drive almost an hour (each way) to work in Virginia every day. It was crazy! When we moved to Charlotte, we started putting way less miles on our cars. The Jeep needed that break when it was our main vehicle. Eddie drove his work vehicle most of the time. When we got our new van in 2012, the Jeep got even more of a break. Now it is 9 years old with about 145,000 miles...not great but much better. Of course, now Eddie is back to driving it as his main vehicle so it is getting a lot of miles on it again. The van is averaging about 15,000 miles a year...not as bad as the 20,000+ per year we used to average, but still at the higher end of the national average. Sigh. Bottom line...we rely way too much on our personal vehicles around here. :-( Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13713281826951568424noreply@blogger.com
