The Jetta turned 50,000 miles Wednesday. I got it July 2004, with right at 17,000 miles. So, in 14 months, I’ve put 33,000+ miles on it, or almost 2,000 miles a month. So far, so good. I’m getting about 30MPG on average. It’s about time for a tune-up, probably; gotta keep the turbo happy!

dang… that is impressive.
Thanks! The predecessor to the Jetta – the patriarchal 1992 Honda Accord LX – was retired last year with 300,000 miles, an average of about 25,000 miles per year. The Jetta is almost on the same pace. We’ll see if the Turbo can hold up that long…
