That's pretty good, considering its a 2011. I'm glad I don't have to worry about storing my Camaro for the winter. I probably wouldn't be able to have the Camaro at all. A trip will be worth the extra 1K miles or whatever is added to the odometer.

I just added 1K miles this past weekend, and will be adding another 1K this weekend or the next... Which means its time for another oil change.

... there is a trunk release in the cabin. It's on the driver door

That is true! You also get an insurance discount since you store the car right? Same here, bud! As much as I loved the car when I bought it, I didn't realize I'd enjoy it this much these past 3 years!

Blue never comes off without leaving a ton of residue. Green leaves a little less residue but still some. Never used yellow.

Blue is the worst. Never use on your paint unless you want tape lines everywhere.

Haha, I'm in the same boat. I made a deal with my parents: I paid my parents auto insurance while in undergrad (I had absolutely zero expenses, besides gasoline), and they pay for mine through med school (where I'd have a crap load more expenses). So far, they're still paying mine, thank God!

But I think sometimes auto insurance cuts you a discount if the vehicle won't be used for a few months out of the year.
