    Our 2013 was light. Probably only did around 2000 or maybe 2500. Not sure what you mean by "...farther than your zip code."

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

    Slow year for me, just 20 short trips totaling 10 miles, 1/4 mile down, 1/4 mile back. Oh yeah, then a few more miles playing in the dirt, 10 laps in a non-winged sprinter!!!!

    I did about 40 in the Corvette since it isn't licensed right now, and 0 in the 40. I drove my 72 about 250 before tearing it apart again.

    Don't really know, but I'd say about 5-6000 in the '47 Ford, and about the same in the Morris Minor
    But only 100 or so in the Cobra.

    I'd like a clarification on your statement, too!!!! Almost sounds like you could be looking down your nose at people who choose to stay closer to home?????

    Last Sunday was the first real outing for my '62 Fairlane and we did around 130 miles round trip but I plan on adding to that, especially when the weekend Cruises kick back up and the weather improves some ! Gotta hellp get the grandson's '66 Stang wipers working so he can get it inspected and then I imagine we'll caravan to a lot of stuff this year - - - sure hope so.

    Does his stang have a foot petal pump squirter for the wipers as well as a switch on the console for low and high? My 68 was set up that way.
