I deserve it, I've never been one to over use my cars but this past year has been extremely minimal. Well it was a fun ride today though, top down and the LS7 was singing a tune.

I am sure each one of those 1k miles brought a smile to your face that is one awesome ride.

Not as bad as some. My best friend who bought my '02 Convertible has only put 600 and something miles on his since March of '11.
