Sorry if I offended anyone, that was not the intent.

It's all perspective I guess, living in a remote location here our household puts on about 180,000 km each year between work and personal travel. Just recently someone here that had built a top dollar Suby powered Buggy made a post to the effect he had put on 3000 miles since the Buggy was finished in 2014 if I recall correctly. Ya, better keep those tires out of the sun if you want them to last!

Jay Leno has a nice buggy too. It's all good.

As a side note about tire age, The West Virginia Legislature has entered a Bill about Tire age. In WV, an annual Motor Vehicle Inspection is required for any WV registered vehicle that drives upon a road.

The new Bill would require the inspection stations to date the tires on a vehicle and if over 5 years old, fail the vehicle until new(er) tires are installed.

I am having a hard time getting my arms around that Bill.
