36K a year is nothing for a truck.
|
When you live an hour from the grocery store, the miles rack up quick. I drive 25K a year, and that's just with normal around-town commuting plus 2-3 trips a month to Houston and back.

3 million on an old Volvo |
I put 97,800 miles on my little pick up in two years.

You guys must have sore butts from sitting in those cars so much.

I've done 1,000 miles in less than 24 hours (on a motorsickle) a few times. |
In a car/truck several times.
|
I did a one day drive from Potomac MD to West Palm Beach Florida one spring break. That's 1,000 almost exactly. It sucked. Never again. And then had to come back. Stupid college kids.

Traffic I don't care for, of course, but, I've never really minded driving.
I don't passenger well at all. |
so, I can't get to just the bare video--sorry!
But I wholeheartedly recommend clicking through to the story at Ars Technica where they've pitted a professional driver on the drift car racing circuit against a ... semi-pro? video gamer... get this... in real Mustangs, on real dirt roads, with all the windows blacked out. The driver is watching a small video screen inside the car, showing the live feed from a camera bolted to a mast/boom on the back of the car. They race head to head on the same track. Madness! Here's the same story from the sponsor, Castrol. Again, can't get the vid from youtube, sorry. |

The racist idiocy? Me, in general? What? |
The racism, not you at all...
