I might be close to the 500K mark, but how about the most countries while at it ;-) I've done round-trips: Frankfurt-Italy-Athens, Frankfurt-Inverness(didn't get a shot of nessie), a few USA coast-to-coast, a few drive up the Andes in South America, a few 'all' countries(always missed Liechtenstein) in continental western europe which for some reason always included the Napoleon route. Got to work on an Asian driving tour sometime

Well, i'll be at 5,000 before the weekend's out, on a car i've only had for 5 weeks... Considering my age, i don't think i'm as high as you are (with mileage)- not to say that you're old or anything... :-)

Let's see...

Saturn: 5,000 (by the end of this weekend- by early Saturday morning, though, if the weather holds)
Sentra: 25,000+
Century Station Wagon: 1,500
Malibu: 200+
Can we count other people's cars we drove a lot...?
Navigator: 2,000+ (estimated)
Cavalier: 10,000+ (accurate approximation)
Lexus LS XXX (SUV): 500+ (estimated)
Accord: 1,000 (estimated)

That's approximately 43,200+ miles that i can remember... Others wouldn't constitute a considerable amount more, i don't think... Damn, i have some driving to do...!

Here's something to think about besides the war. How many miles have you driven since you got your driver�s license? (racing included) 500,000+ for me, I've never lived far from where I worked.

Enjoy:-O
