Estimated date of joining:

10,000 - 04/2003
100,000 - 02/2008

Looks like I have a while to go...
Of course, this is a wildly random estimate, as the 'sample size' was during the school simester, and it does not take into account any sort road trips, or the like...

Anyone else?

I only live 4 miles from work, so it will take me a while to hit 10,000 let alone 100,000!

Pretty soon I will be a member of the 5,000 mile club.

10,000: 05/2003 (taking into account that I don't really go anywhere in the winter)
100,000: Oh man, I don't know. I will say sometime in 2008.

I just did the math...
1 day avg = 110
1 week avg = 550
1 month avg = 2200

by my calculation, expecting delivery mid/late december, I should hit 10K by mid May or there abouts.

I just saw a Volvo P1800 (I think it is a '66) in CT two week ago that has gone over 2 MILLION miles (some of you have probably read about it...). I think that's something to shoot for, no?

>>I just saw a Volvo P1800 (I think it is a '66) in CT two week ago that has gone over 2 MILLION miles (some of you have probably read about it...). I think that's something to shoot for, no? True bliss, I say!

On topic: I'm rounding the bend on 8k within 5 months. At this pace, I'll be at 10K near Christmas! 100k, well? .....ciphering...... At the current rate, July 1, 2007 looks like the date. Yowza! I sure hope Molly is in it for the long haul with me!

I think even a Million would be cool! Lessee now..... ...more ciphering.... Somewhere around July of 2054. Should I tell you how old I'd be? Let's just say that it is within the realm of realistic possibility.
