These cars LOVE highway miles, about 85% of the 160K on my
Square is highway miles.  Take it out, use it a bit at speed
alot could straighten itself out.

 It's certainly possible . Last time I drove it faster than 45 MPH was 2006 
except one freeway drive in 2015 . I do step on it on main and some side 
streets and keep the auto trans in 2nd gear which is not quite the same 
thing as fully warming it up .
