Sad to say, I didn't pay attention to the mileage this year. But I do know the Truck racked up some serious mileage! 2 trips to the Squizz's in one year, LOL!

Thank you, Matt!


And, Dave ... I wonder which of us did more road trip miles this year ... you or me. I bet I'll win in 2011, if the road trip works out with me heading to PA and back before heading to the northwest US....lol.

Cort, Tomorrow, I'll write the Mileage down on all 6 vehicles and see what the grand total will be next December 31.

And if your heading back to PA, Keep us posted, and we'll see what we can do to make a road trip to meet up with you again.

Cool.  So, what was the mileages you wrote down?

 

Yep ... heading back to PA the last weekend of June, 2011.  Will be a VERY short visit, though.
