My Eclipse....by r18ad
I was looking for some kind of owners club.
This site caught my attention.
Yes, I'm new here but I have to tell you people....
I have a 1994 Eclipse with over 340,000 miles on it,
though mostly freeway miles.
Oh, I have spent the $$$$ in upkeep but she's been
paid for since June of '01.
I save the monthly payment I had which gives me the
cash to pay for repairs such as valve guide seals, CV boots, etc.
I averaged $127/month maintenance in '09 as I'm not
much at mechanics...the biggest expense was a radiator.
Oh...I am in the Houston TX area so my car has never
been exposed to salt!!!!
But the best part? She still averages 36 mpg.
(as stated...It's mostly freeway miles)
Glad to be here............r18ad
