I put on at least 40K a year, so no leases here. Perhaps try to re-negociate the terms on your lease, paying for 2 cars might not be the cheapest way. Weight out your options before you make a quick decision on this stuff, you obviously forgot to when you made this deal.

I drove about 7k miles in 2005. 🙂 I’d find a cheapo car to drive for a bit.

buy a cheap shitty autotragic 80-sumthing honda to beat the piss out of or at least a decent bike for nice days, insurance on a bike as a “infrequent driver” is rediculously cheap and you will get awesome gas mileage. that or put a kill switch in to the odometer and shut it off on long trips

if u have a digi odometer, cant you pull a fuse for the dash display and the odometer will stop counting untill the fuse is replaced?? of course then u lose all the functions in your dash but whatever…
would that work?
