How often are you on your stang?


I was just curious as to see how often your stang sees 5,000rpm.

Mine= at least once a day, sometimes several on a good day.

I know our cars can handle 5k fine, but will it sacrafice the life very much if you push it to 5k alot?

I maintain it very very well, oil change every 3k miles... etc etc.

I kno its a newb question but no one ever talks about this
