Later that day I got my free tire rotation at Firestone....about 15,000 miles on the tires....again an easy to remember milestone. Firestone does a free balancing with each rotation, which I did not know before. I just happened to see the tech roll one of the tires away from my car, mount it on the machine, and close the lid.
P.S. This = my 15th oil change since purchased new

This is just awesome... Really, really inspiring to hear you got your oil changed at 240,010, just awesome! I've had my 2013 for about 7 weeks and just turned over 1,000 miles...I'll be lucky to put on 7,500 miles on it in a year. With this kind of mileage (240,010) I'll never think twice about putting extra miles on my car - you should be proud!
OH, I just figured it out, you averaged an oil change every 16,000 miles - I can't wait to change the oil on this car, but it will be awhile. Every time I talk about how easy it will be to change the oil on 'Scruffy', I get the ball & chain saying, 'Don't forget you have 2 years of free oil changes' - Yeah whatever!
