lol just rolled over 5,500 kms (which just over 3400 miles) today.

Took delivery on March 28, 2015.

To be fair, I have a 4.5km ROUND TRIP (to and from) work.

I've enjoyed every second behind the wheel of my car.

I get flack for it all the time, but I love what I do for work, and I love getting to and from work. And it's close to home.

I don't drive it in the winter or bad weather either.

Do I qualify?

I guess I don't get it. There's nothing particularly special about the Mustangs. Don't get me wrong, I love my car. I really wouldn't want anything else. But I bought it to drive. It's my daily and my only car. It's not much more than buy a loaded Camry or accord (well a base GT). I don't see the point. Certainly a GT350 or even the Boss since they are limited productions but all the other mustangs, there is no shortage. I see at least 3-5 different S550s on the way to work. There are 3 or 4 GTs in the parking lot.

I guess my point is just drive it. You spent $30-40k for a reason. You're not really going to get that much more than the guy that averaged 12-15k a year on his car when you sell it in 5 years.

You don't have to get it.
There is something special about it, to us.
It's not our daily driver. We have other cars for daily driving.
The diminished value has nothing to do with it.
I rarely see any S550s and even more rarely a GT.
I do drive it. Just not everyday.
I spent over 40K for a fully loaded GT/CS specifically to have as a weekend/trip car to have a blast in.

Bought mine in August of 2015 and just rolled over 1,000 miles last weekend. I have a company vehicle, '13 FX4 F150, 15 Mustang, and an '09 Harley Street Glide so it's hard for me to put many miles on the Stang.

If people here are mad about the low miles on my car, they can ES!

Pretty much this. Living in Canada, a winter beater is a good idea if you're a Mustang owner.

It becomes that much more enjoyable when I switch from driving a commuter car to an 8-cylinder beast. The mustang is one car I truly enjoy betting behind the wheel; it's the relief at the end of a hard day's work.

I really miss it in the winter months when I have to ride my polar bear or snowshoe my way to work in the torrential 6ft snow Canada bestows upon us.

I guess mine is a semi-garage queen?

After 1 year and 4 months, she has 8,700 miles! The car is mainly driven on the weekends.

6700 Miles.. Bought it in Sept of 2015. Most of those miles were in the first six months. I have calmed down and let it sit a little in the garage LOL. Prob put 50 miles a week or less on it average now unless I have an event to drive to.

I have a work provided vehicle and several other vehicles at my disposal for the daily if need be.:thumbsup:
