Well it feels like a milestone anyway

I pulled back in the driveway and looked down to see this. (good timing) I'll be back in 222 miles

Far as I know, I drove it 3 times this year including today!

Gonna be in it for a while now through the winter most likely, least I plan to be. It's been driven about 14 times in 3 yrs so I need to put some miles on it.

Show me an American-brand car that can do that, look as good, have as few problems, and still have a long life ahead it.


Oh that's right...you can't.

Nice one OLT!

On a side note, an employee where my mom works has some old rusted ford van with over 380k miles on the clock and the thing still runs believe it or not.

How about a american-brand van?




That is a picture of my 95 astro I used to own. I traded it with 315,XXX miles for partial trade for my SC300.

Yes I spent money on it to keep it going, but it started up EVERYTIME and also went on a 600 mile trip in 06 with no problems.

Back to topic sorry.... Congrats on the mileage!
