Am I going over board with my mileage on my new 2014 RS?
I got my new car on 5/26 and it's now the 23rd ad I'm already at the 905 mile mark. Should I chill a lil bit lol?
Also at what mileage should i get the oil changed and which brand to use? |

On average people drive 12,000 miles per year so no. You've had it for almost a month and you have almost 1,000 miles on it.

Don't get caught up with the miles. I have 4k miles since April. You bought the car with your hard earned money. enjoy every moment with it. Don't save miles for the next guy.

I'm at 12K miles in 8 months but I use mine for work. I did my first LOF at 3K miles and I use Pennzoil Ultra Pure plus.

I bought my 2014 Spark on June 21st and it has over 1600 miles on it now.
My Camaro turned 2 years old on the 21st and now I have 21,000 miles on it. I usually put more miles on a car for the first couple months the it slacks off some.

At 900 miles do your first oil change.

I've owned mine for 3-1/2 years and have 18.5k on it, but I don't drive mine to work, nor do I drive it in the winter or crappy weather it's my weekend cruiser when I want to take it out..
Some people drive them as a daily driver some don't it's all in what you want the car for, me I have my truck for my DD and I'm cool with that, I also don't care what others do with theirs, it's their car not mine so I won't tell anyone what they should do with theirs.. Enjoy it how you want/choose too it's yours you paid for it, just ENJOY it..

That's awesome! Everytime I see a ZL1 owner talk about their mileage I'm like "how do you not drive the thing?!?".
