Just got our SSR a week ago today and WOW, it is something else! I've had Corvettes, street rods, a Harley (still do) and this by far gathers the most attention.
I have also spent the past week reviewing all of the technical and non-technical posts to see if I can eliminate doing the the "wrong" things. Thanks to all of you for your input.
Now I know that for most of you, this is a "toy" or pleasure-only vehicle, but for some of us (me included) it will be a true-blue transportation vehicle for me. (SSR Fanatics? - Never fear though, all of my vehicles are always spotless in a climate controlled garage!)
Now, my wife & I are lucky enough to work from home, so the miles won't go up in a hurry, but I was interested into how many miles has someone on this forum put on their SSR the past year (or two)? And for the high milage members, what kind of major maintenance costs (tires, etc.) have you encountered?
Thanks for letting me join your very select group...... (Oh yeah, the BUFFY stands for Big Ugly Fat Friendly Yankee - We're in the South, ya' know!)

I recently applied to Grundy to insure my 2005 SSR, based on input I have read in this forum. I was declined in part because Grundy said the SSR "has no collector status"! I thought that was interesting since I have read several posts on this forum that indicate SSR owners had obtained Grundy...
This idea is on another forum that I visit, and I think it is a great idea!

It's early here, so I haven't done anything to mine yet, but a top to bottom cleaning is needed on my R. I hope to get to that today. ;)
While chatting with long time and new members at the 2018 Warner Robins Rally several mentioned that a way was needed to identify people in pictures. This has been discussed over the years and many attempts have been unsuccessful. It dawned on me that the reason is:
1. The pictures always...
So what's up with the administrators / moderators on this forum?
It seems like bluestreak is the only one who takes actions. If he's out of pocket, it seems like nothing happens. So what's going on? Where are the other administrators / moderators?
