I used to do 2-3k a year in mine. Just used a trickle charger. I was going to keep it but my new job requires a car that won’t let me down. And does double the mpg.

Now it’s gone the only real problem I see is the winter. But really!? I’m worrying about nothing.

Honestly, I would have kept it and swallowed the poor mpg, but I just couldn’t risk it Censored up when I started battering the miles on it.

Get a volvo. Best thing I ever did.

This is the most sensible answer

The cars we see with most issues are the ones rarely used...
