Purchased mine 3/2/2009 with around 40 miles on it. (damn test drivers!) Has somewhere around 36k on it I think?.. drive it so little now that I don't know!.
It is getting really hard for me not to sell it. Lately I was looking at a new GMC Canyon Denali which would be more practical instead of my daily driver 1995 Ford Explorer Sport 2WD that my Grandpa bought brand new.
I don't know if I can sell it, not sure if it is because I've had it 9 years, replacement would be starting 35k, knowing I'd miss having a car?? all the above? Anyone else having a similar issue?
