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.

Picked it up in May had the 1200 Break in Done in 10 days... - We would pick a direction ( we had not been in _ lately ) and drive east till it was time to go south... then West... back home.

It wiill probably stay in till Spring now,,, SNOW ;?(
