Hit 37,750 miles today. Car was totally rebuilt due to chassis cracking. Have done all the improvements due to design flaws as well as a few that are just for fun. The car is even better than anything I remember before. I called it short today as it is warming up and the wind is picking up the dust on the roads and it is vile. I don't have the engine fan but I really feel that an oil cooler with an oil pressure/temperature gauge is the way to go. I live in rural Vermont and getting stuck in traffic just does not happen.

I have tentatively planned a cross country trip for later in the year but I will tow the M3W on a trailer and save it for the fun bits. There are a lot of very nice roads on the east coast due to the Appalachia Mountain range and there are some amazing roads from Colorado to the west coast. The middle bits, however, are miles and miles of miles and miles.

The car is behaving well and acting like a new car without all the birth pains that I recall. We shall see...


What's your mileage? Who cares. Is it practical? See #1. What happens when it rains? You get wet.
