Yes... not a lot of snow here in Vermont either this year.
But get your traction control and Stabilitac off, get going a a good clip across an empty Snow Covered parking lot, turn and gun it to get the rear end coming around, turn in to the slide and keep the gas down. See how far you can go sideways. Fun!!

It's kind of like Drifting with out the tire ware.

I'm leasing my camaro for 3 years/45K miles.

Luckily i work on the same street as my job, but I know it will be higher when summer roles around.

If I were to divide it by the number of actual days driven, it would go up dramatically!

Nice.

I see you have the solo cat back with J pipes on the V6. I listened to many video clips but really what to hear in person... Got to find someone closer to me here in North Western Vermont so I can get a listen.

Yeah, I have got ~50 mile round trip to work each day so that helps keep my average up there.
The rest is just driving it when ever I can, store, take the kids some where, or just to take it for a Drive... to Drive!!!

Birm · 02-21-2012, 05:04 PM

1467 miles divided by 32 days owned = 45.84375

My commute is @120 miles per day x 6 days a week, but it has been driven to Washington D.C., Missouri, around the state Of Michigan, getting ready to go to Chicago next week!

My DD has averaged 58.4 miles per day for the four and a half months I've owned it. But, I've been living less than a mile from my office all that time.

90% of my mileage is from long distance highway trips (ranging from 450 miles to 850 miles).

Been loving every mile. Bought it to drive it.

JeSSter · 02-22-2012, 04:38 PM

Bought my 2011 CGM 2SS/RS on November 15, 2010. I currently have 42K on the odometer. I don't want to do the math but I drive it a lot (all four seasons in Michigan)

Oo, Oo, I can help.
I Like spreadsheets:
But they do not cut and past so well in this forum, so:

Today Minus Date bought = Days you have owned the car

2/22/2012 - 11/15/2010 = 464 days

Miles Divided by # days = Ave miles per day

42000 / 464 = 90.51724

Round up to 90.5 MPD (Miles per day)
