On the plus side....if you do end up keeping her, it doesn't really matter how many miles you put on her. If you don't, paying the excess mileage might be considered good insurance against obsolescence.
I'll wait and see what numbers Nissan comes up with AND what the trade in value of my car is.
I have to drive about 75 miles round trip, 5 days a week, plus extra 'around town' miles. I'm up to 18,500 already in 9 months of my current car. I always tell people 'I didn't buy it to have it sit in the driveway!!'

Luckily I'm getting 32mpg average in that car.
