It is very reassuring to hear that the ONLY problem you have had with your LS in 70k miles is a lamp out! If New England didn't have such terrible weather all the time mine would have way more than 3k miles!

ouch, 2500 gallons of gas. It sounds like an awful lot when you hear it that way. And here in Louisville for the past year at $3.50-4 a gallon... makes my wallet hurt.

PieNsky, love that you drive it. Wear it out, I say. What fun is a great car if it just sits in your garage. Of course, in 3 more years at your pace your son is looking at 280,000 miles!

i just hit 1,600 miles in my 2011 2LT RS

Do you park it on a running dyno at night? Wow. That's cool though that it has been reliable.

I guess in my family only my dad drives more: Dad=2005 Dodge Ram Diesel around 183,000 miles, Mom= 1999 MBZ 500SL AMG around 18,000 miles, Me=2004 Dodge Ram Hemi 56,487 miles, and 2010 Camaro 5,216 miles.

Wow... when I saw 70K, I thought the thread would be about a 4th gen or something. I drive mine a LOT, and I've got just under 40K since Nov 09.

You rock sir.

GM makes a great v6 engine.. we have a (non camaro) v6 3.8 and its at 168,000 miles and all we have ever done is change the oil..2003 Impala... I would buy a v6 Camaro in a heart beat.. we get 28 mpg in the Impy and I have to say the Camaro is styling a lot better ...hahahahahaha
Congrats ... You going to have a little party when she hits 100?

PieNsky · 06-19-2011, 12:16 PM

Don't have to wait till it hits 100K for a party, although it will be a good excuse for another one.
