The Beast Hits 40
So, just the other day The Beast turned 40... that would be hitting 40,000 miles on the ol' odometer. And if that's the case... I'm hoping he lives to be well over 200!!! :o) Anyhow, we celebrated by spending over $500 for his birthday. He got new wheels, new brake pads, a couple quarts of oil, and a bath! Doesn't sound like much for $500 does it?!So how many miles are on your automobile these days? Any records out there??
Here's a picture of me on the Toyota lot just over two years ago as a proud, and recently indebted, owner of a new baby Tundra... which I quickly named... The Beast.

I think my baby is at 120,000. I keep hoping and praying that my ford expedition will last for another 100,000 and then I'm getting a hummer:) YAY!!!!!
you WOULD put a picture of your truck on your blog! (all shiney and clean too!) I put 23,000 miles on my Nissan Sentra in just ONE year... that just shows you how many trips to LA I had to take for school... someday that will all be over, but until then "poncho bean" will have to put in a lot of work! Congrats on your 40K celebration!
oh man, don't remind me! my honda accord (wagon!) has 215,000 miles on it! which is just peachy because it runs great... but it won't pass the smog! I need to deal with that when I get home. errrr.
But my wife and I did buy a brand new car a few months ago... a Mazda 5! It's cool. I think we've already put about 9,000 miles on it!
Rebecca - Pancho Bean!?!? You seriously had me laughing out loud with that one!
Amy - You need to just sell the Expedition and go for it... remind me to tell you the story of how I bought my Tundra.
Blaine - 215,000! That's a ton! I bet it'd pass smog anywhere besides California!
