That's not that bad. My wife works from home and puts about 9-10k on her car each year, so you are well under that!

sadly most of those miles are trying around town in stop and go traffic. Only have done two road trips to palm springs and julian. Guessing driving it is better then not

If anyone ever does a road trip just to get pie, then you'd better be road tripping to Pie Town, NM.

Good pie in Pie Town!

Almost at the end of the tunnel.

Got a hold of a different AAA and DMV contact and they told me to sign some paper stating the issue and mail to DMV along with pink slip and proof of sale. What something that actually makes sense vs the microfilm crap? Anyways got a new pink slip a week or so ago without any other documentation. Still havent got any refund but called AAA today and they looked up my stated value of my car and it is now correct.



Now if i can just get my refund..
