You're think by my beligerant attitude about pollution, "saving the
planet" and so on that I'd be one of those dudes who knock down 30,000
miles a year on my cars. Far from it, I only drive 10K a year max.
Couple of factors: Work only 10 miles away. Driving in Seattle is
anything but fun*. Not enough free time to go on "long drives". I only
went on one long drive in the last 3 years. And that was a grand total
of 500 miles.
* Number of reasons why driving in Seattle isn't fun:
1. Since cops can't do real policing, they do traffic
2. Since they spend money on roads last, roads suck. Can provide
bullet list of crap they spend money on before roads, but that would
kill the server.
3. Traffic is a nightmare. Empty carpool lanes, buses everwhere,
"traffic calming" devices, etc.
Ya, driving just ain't fun anymore. Guess that's the whole idea, huh?
One reason I'm partial to luxury sedans is at least they're comfortable.
I've driven high tactile (read: bone jarring) sports cars that overheats
in Seattle. Talk about NOT FUN!
How much do you drive your Peugeot? Especially interested in how much
our European buddies drive. I mean, if you drive 20K per year @ 4-5 per
gal. Wow, that must suck. Use metric to describe - no biggie.
