Amen to that! I was just buying new tires for my Tiger, and all these
tire store guys were telling me how I was going to get 60,000 miles on
this tire, 70,000 miles on that tire, and so on, and how this tire was
better for rain and slush...
HA!
Kinda hard to rack up those kinda miles when you only drive it once in a
while in nice weather! I think I've only put 5000 miles on mine since
buying it in 1993. Very FUN miles!
