Thanks ! yes I have decided to keep it.. At least for a while...
There is nothing wrong with it... I guess I'm at that two year point where I'm itching for a new toy..

I understand with these low mileage cars popping up, it makes you want to dump yours and buy a lower mileage one.

People lose out on these low mileage cars as they will not drive them with a fear of depreciating them but what would they know about the car if they never drove it.

Consider yourself fortunate that you are in a position to drive it rather than look and save it for the next owner.

I got 3 cars and yet I put on 4000 miles on my 16K car in this past year.

Enjoy while you can

TOTALLY UNDERSTOOD! Go wash and detail it and you can make up for looking at other women/cars.

I say that if the mileage where bothering me in an otherwise perfect car.. I'd say freshen the motor up, and go for some serious reliable power! Then have everything!
