That's just an accceptable side affect of driving it. Cars are made to be driven.

Not at all. I dont drive mine too often, (its my toy, not my daily) but I have never once thought "Man I really wanna drive the Camaro today, but I'd hate to put miles on it"

I do! Mine is my daily driver and my dad always tells me I need to keep my milage low, but because of school, work, and everything else I don't have much of a choice, but to put miles on it. But I do love to drive it, so I guess it is just the cost of driving

If you don't drive it, why have it?

A car you don't drive is like having a girlfriend you don't sleep with.

I hate putting miles on my car... I currently sit at 9k. I put 1k on my car during Thanksgiving and that just about tore my heart out.

I don't drive mine very much, less than 300 miles a month, so a garage queen. I don't mind putting miles on, but I worry about stupid stuff happening. Like a door ding, scratches, etc.

I acutally have been feeling bad for not driving it enough! Very low miles for being almost 3 1/2 yrs old.

Miles are smiles.

I make up reasons to drive my car.

Just because you got it to drive it doesnt mean you cant feel bad putting miles on it. I dont feel bad but I wish I could drive it without putting miles on it lol.

I dont drive it a lot of times not for feeling bad about miles but because its raining or I dont want to park it at the mall or wal mart or well anywhere other than my garage lol Plus I have a constant worry about rock chips, I have 2 on my splitter :( then the more I drive the more I wash and wax...
