The other night, my Stang hit a minor milestone and so I had to stop and get a shot of it.
It rolled into the 10,000 mile mark at 1 year, 1 month, and 17 days.

Within those 10,000 miles, its done some great things, such as, a 1,500 mile road trip, a day at the 1/4 mile track, many many cruise ins and meets, and a car show (1 of 5 Overall Best of Show winner WOO HOO!!! My first time ever ), in addition to being an every other day driver.

So far, its been problem free and running great just as it was when I first got it.
DANGIT!! Now, I just jinxed myself. Son of a....! Oh well.
Hopefully, I'll be lucky and report the same at the 20,000 miles.

So, how have your first 10,000 miles been in your 05 or 06 Stang?

JT,

Same here, just under 10,000 miles and I have had Charlotte since June of last year. No problems at all. BTW, I have a Redfire also.

Glad to hear everything is going well with your car.

Yeper!
This car was built to go fast, but I do my best to drive efficiently as I can. Stupid gas prices!
However, when I want to get on it I'll get on it. I can't resist the temptation.

I usually fill it up at around 320+ miles, but I recently got 345.7 miles out of 15.328 gallons.
