Picked up a Comp Orange Eco over the weekend!

[69Mach1-409]

Traded the fiancee's 2012 6'er, with 133k miles on the clock, for a 2015 Comp Orange Ecoboot 6M this past Saturday.

Long story, short.. She found 'the' one all the way out by her parents place 4.5 hrs away. She then convinced me to tow her 6'er 4.5hrs out to the dealership and tow the Eco back home. Her excuses were a better 'break-in' for the Eco by avoiding the long, steady hwy drive home & so our 5' 5" 12yr old son wouldn't be stuck in the back of a stang for the entire trip.

Anyway, pics:

Just pulling the in-law's house after picking her up.

Took it out for some 'break-in' miles on the back mountain roads around their place.

Loaded up Sat night for the ride home.

About halfway home yesterday.

I am a huge fan of CO! Great looking car!

What do you think of the EB with the 6M?

By the way, your fiance doesn't let cars sit still for long, does she??? 133K on a 2012!!!! J/K

 

[69Mach1-409]

No she doesn't!

I like it. It's a fun car to drive and handles worlds better than her 2012 did, even with the koni shocks/struts. It's quicker than I thought it would be and, with all the driving she does, makes alot more sense than a 5.0 would for her.

Damn. That didn't quite sink in the first time I looked here. Now I don't feel so bad about my '13's mileage. Though the mere thought of this will give Darren hives...

Nice pickup! You guys really rack the miles up!

 

[Shaffe]

damn thats a ton of miles on 12!!!!!!

but more importantly you got the best color for the new one!!

 

[69Mach1-409]

Thanks!

Yeah, when we got it back in June of 2011, she was commuting to University of Delaware for her PhD and we live in South Jersey. Things didn't get any better when she got her job either.. She drives almost an hour & a half each way to work!

Love seeing the CO color in person, but damnit the internet or my PC makes it look like red.

 

[69Mach1-409]

That's what everyone says!!! HAHA!

Put the PP black rims on it to really set it off.

 

[MADGT]

Sure gets folks attention. Congrats!

 

[bigwilly43729]

Wow, I haven't hit 40K on my 2012.

Sweet ride. Not understanding the towing logic. Sounds like she just didn't want to make that drive, lol.

Thanks!

We live in South Jersey. She drives almost an hour & a half each way to work!

An hour and a half in Jersey during rush hour? Isn't that about two miles?
I spent 4 months there doing a project, which is why I ask....

Nah, we're just in South Jersey (basically exit one on the NJTPK) and she commutes almost to Baltimore. ..sucks when you choose a narrow field for your PhD and can't find a real job.
