Do you have a 40th... How long after you brought it home did it take to get the smile off your face?

I don't have a 40th yet. I'm in the process right now of trying to get into one, but it's not simple because I have a middle man because I am overseas and I have a trade. I'll definitely know before the end of the month.

Daily Driver... YES! Thank god work is only 3 miles one way. I can handle 6 miles a day!

Yes. But Pathfinder in the winter.

I brought mine home on the 15th it had 26 miles on it at delivery... Today is the 21st... that makes it 6 days ago? I woke up Thursday morning in Fontana Village, and now have 900 miles on her... 22 of those on the Tail of the Dragon and while I am driving it as one breaking it in should... I find myself wondering...

Is mine the first 40th to slay the Dragon? Chime in if your 40th has been to the Dragon....

Cars were made to be driven...

Oh yes, it will be. These cars were ment to be driven. I won't abuse the car of course, but I don't think I could stand by and just look at it every day and not drive it. I'll be enjoying my purchase from behind the wheel.

the bad thing about your commute is: it's too short. you could only enjoy the ride on your z for like 5 minutes or maybe even less if you drive fast

I drive my baby everyday unless we are in the wife's car, which is a Infiniti FX35! Still fun! Still Nissan! I bought to drive it! I can't enjoy it if it's parked in my garage!!!!

I got mine on May 6. I drove 57 miles from Dealer to home. 20 days later, It has 210 miles. I plan to drive my babe on the weekends ONLY. 4K a year perhaps..

nogoodfella · 05-25-2010, 01:40 PM

Got the car on the 20th and I still have 18 miles on her. 2009 Xterra SE is my daily commuter. The highways here are littered with pebbles from all of the highway construction. I have to install clear bra first before breaking her in properly.

onzedge · 06-01-2010, 05:39 PM

These are my semi-daily drivers (about 50% each).

djpathfinder · 06-01-2010, 06:19 PM

Great vehicles! Nothing wrong with sharing the love.

We have to stop smiling? I was unaware this was a requirement...do I have to keep it parked then?
