21K miles in 4 months  :wow:

I have been in airport since I got the Nav, I have only put ~3K miles on it since NOV-2016.

I also have the same problems, too busy to put a full detail on it and with the road construction out in front of the house running to NOV-2017 there has been no reason.
- Dirt and dust and once a rain comes all mud.

I tossed all my open pads and put the polishers in bags until construction is done.

My daily commute is 60 miles one way and with traveling to the yards every week it doesn't take long to pile on the miles.

Wow, 60 miles is the round trip to my parents house when I go there on SAT morning to see them.

I am ~ 1 mile from the SW corner of ORD as the crow flies, I am 7 miles because I have to drive around the south side to get to the terminal.
- Uber both ways is almost cheaper than 1 day of parking now making it less miles on the truck.  :clap:

Sad part, my miles since I got it include a trip to DTW and 2 trips to Indy, so you can see where the builk of my miles are at.

And I thought my daily 38 mile (each way) commute was bad!

It's not really as bad as it sounds. I get to think about my to do list and what's got to happen during the work day for the hour ride into town then I get to chill and ignore the world on the way home at night. The only thing that I am really concerned about is carrying the plow that much in the winter.

Or unless I hit another skunk like I did last week. :cry:

Sorry for your loss. 

Did the truck have a viking funeral or did you just leave the keys in the ign in a bad part of town ?

They sure as hell know not to touch it when it smells like that.  :wow:

The keys in the truck in the bad part of town was the Seinfeld beyond BO reference.
