I have a 1997 Toyota 4Runner with 225K miles. I mainly use it for hauling dogs and fire wood. On long drives it bounces so much that my equilibrium is shot for the day. And at the 75 mph speed limits on I25, when it hits expansion joints on bridges there is no way to guess which way it will go. It is really uncontrollable on this commute. Not worth my life.

I got the MB C300 for ride and crash safety rating knowing that when this job assignment is over it will be used up. They pay me well enough that it is not a big deal and I write off the mileage expenses. I also have a 2013 Audi S6 which is a real rocket. It has V8 Twin Turbo and C&D test for 0-60 was 3.7 seconds. I mainly drive it on weekends. I only have 5K miles on it so far. I live way up in the mountains in Colorado so I only have AWD vehicles now. The Toyota comes into service when the snow is really deep.

I’ve only put 6k on the 335i and have had it for a year and a half. Some rides you just save & enjoy. Not to many more days in the high desert here before the weather sets in. Sounds like you’re about outa good drive weather too.

I am not quite up to 6K on the Audi S6. About the same driving mileage per year as you and the 335.

H very limited time to travel this Spring and Summer w/the house remodel and wife’s busy work schedule. We hope to rectify that this coming year, Lord willing. Put some new Michelin ZR summer tires on last week - (had the belt showing on the RR..others had minimal tread) $1700.00 ca-ching!

I sympathize with these drivers on this bumpy track. Reminds me of the Connecticut highways I drive every day.

Race Fans! Apologies for the late ping. Just got home from the mtns. I tried to set up the ping on the way but my smart phone was not being smart, couldn’t copy & paste.

First race of the chase. Weather looks wonderful!
