My 2005 Honda Civic was bought in April 2005 from Honda of Oakland (California). When I took her home from the dealership, I could barely drive stick shift. At first, I made a lot of noise and didn't know how to get her to move forward.... so she was appropriately named 'Roary'.
After spending 1 year in California, she has followed me traversed the country, following me to Illinois, New Jersey, Texas, Arizona, and now Oregon.
She caught a nasty boo-boo in St. Louis, in 2006 which almost ended her life prematurely. But she has otherwise been trouble-free! She has regular visits to the dealer, has had the battery and tires changed once, the front brakes changed twice, and the clutch changed at 94k.
She reached 100,000 coming home from a day trip to Mt. Rainier. A perfect way to celebrate the occasion.
