oh, its served me very well... it was originally a company car and had 135k miles when i got it two years ago. i got an awesome deal on it, have only put 10k on it since but i drive it pretty hard. only had to replace the 02 sensor and i will be putting it into the garage the end of this month for some preventive maintenance and servicing. i've had no real problems. i plan on doing lots of traveling when i get back stateside so i don't see stopping in sd as a real problem
