I hit a nice milestone in my 2018 Corvette today, the engine has 2000 hours on it. For those of you who have an hour meter, at what mileage did you see 2000 hours? Mine has just over 74,000 miles on it
Hit 2000 hours in the Corvette

On my CX-50 I will hit 2000 engine hrs at about 63k miles if I keep with my current driving mix. I'm currently a little over 41k miles. On my previous car, I hit 2000hr of my own after about 87k miles. I got that car used so I have no idea how it was used previously cause it didn't have a true hour meter. I just tracked it with a scangauge.
Nice!
74,000/2,000 = 37mph average. Not bad, you're clearly not in the "drive it to a Tim Horton's parking lot and back" crowd

I thought my average would be a little bit higher than that since I do mostly highway and go 70-80 mph for long periods of time.Nice!

I had a vehicle with a meter that reset every 10,000 miles and drove it mostly in a very crowded high traffic metro area. I averaged pretty close to 30 miles an hours. Had it up to 125,000 miles before I sold it, must have had well north of 5,000 hours, maybe 6,000.
I checked our 2019. It has 109 hours, at 6300 miles. It was bought from the estate of a former racing organization owner I worked for, last year with 4k miles on it. The wife and I spread our annual miles driven/ridden over many vehicles. As they are as much a hobby as transportation.

Congrats, beautiful car! It's good to see these being driven rather than parked in the garage.

The real question is "How many miles are on your New Balance sneakers?".

Thankfully I have never owned a pair, nor have I ever had jean shortsThe real question is "How many miles are on your New Balance sneakers?".
