It is my car, I am just allowing her to drive it, for now.
I drive about 100 miles round trip to work, so when her cars get some miles on it and we get a new one, I start driving her old one. We do that so I don't whack the mileage on the new car. The 02 GP that I am retiring is a 3.1 SE, if it was a 3.8 I would be tempted to rebuild it and mod it. Maybe my 06 GT when it gets retired. This GXP was just too good a deal for me to pass up. It had 46,000 miles and I gave $9,000. I had to fix a lot of hail damaged. Most of it was PDR and the hood replaced. When it gets retired, I may just refresh it for my toy. The Mustang was her driver until she got a job teaching in a different city. That car is not built for the miles that a GP can do and the 06 got a good deal, so I detail the Mustang, put it in the garage and cover it. We take it out on dates (with each other) and drive it to church on Sundays. If the weather is good of course, it has not seen a drop of rain in 5 years. The Mustang is her dream car, mine is a 70 1/2 Z28. I had one when I was 16. Since I could never find one now nor afford it if I did, and since I have had so many GP, now the GXP may fill that role.
Now when we bought the GXP I had to check the laws to see if its legal for a 60 something great grandmother to drive one.![]()
