    Not really. The 1st several years of the car's life- it was a trailer queen- winning in 2001 at the Oakland Roadster Show & the one in Portland. The 1st 3-4 years were in & out of a trailer only. Then it was driven to shows for awhile but most of the 15,000 miles have been racked up in the last several years. I've put 2,000 miles on it myself since June.


    Sounds like 5-7 years is the deal.- - even though it seems to be perpetuated by tire manufacturers. Imagine that!
