I was just looking over the records I keep for my cars, figuring if they were due for maintenance this spring and I just realized that the Forester, bought in February 2003 is now 10 years old. It also has over 290,000 miles on it. I also noticed we just eclipsed $30,000.00 in gas put into that vehicle. That's almost $5,000 more than we paid for the car (including loan)! That's 11,440 gallons of gas. More than a tanker truck holds. Or an average of $2.63 a gallon. Over 25 miles per gallon. Not sure how I feel about that. That's a lot of money, $3000 a year or $250.00 a month on average.
And we are not done with the car yet. We gotta at least get it to 300,000 miles. That should happen in September or October this year.
