Default anyone not drive to save KM's ?

on my days off from work (5 days a week that i drive there and back) i never drive my car because im afraid that im going to rack up to many KM's on my car and put to much stress on it, about a week ago i just hit the 100,000km on my car and that was pretty scary lol...does anyone else worry about this much?

i really don't worry about it too much. just due to the fact that the engines can last a good long while. as long as you don't push it too hard, you'll be fine.

I dont care about miles. Until recently when gas went way up I would drive everywhere. Just for fun

yea miles on my car really doesn't bother me that much because it is after all a civic. the only that really worries me is the gas prices

with 280,000km's on my car i suprisingly dont really worry about it, but everytime i hear a noise that i never heard before, or smell a funny smell(like burning oil or rubber) then i get all paranouid that it is my car, or that something broke and i have to add that to my list of replacements, cause ti is big enough as is befoer i can get more mods

i dont really worry, my car has over 170,00 miles on it, but i do worry about gas prices, although to fill my tank it is at most $25.00, so...

but the gas prices at one of my local gas stations went up...so i am not goin there...lol
