> [@FairyChatMom](#): > > We almost always live far away from everything Me, too. I live 13 miles from a store of any type and 25 from a town that has anything other than high-price convenience stores. To go _anywhere_ is a 26-mile round trip. And that includes my son’s school and all related activities. ---

'04 Toyota Sequoia: 60,000 '10 Ford Fusion Hybrid: 2,000 (just bought it, I drive 75 miles a day for work) '67 Mustang: Hmm. Odometer reads around 50,000. That shows about 20,000 on top of a used engine I dropped into it in '99 that had 11,000 on it supposedly. The car is a bit of a beater, not a show car at all. So the question is how many times has the odometer wrapped? Past fleet: '98 Lincoln Continental: 60,000 (just donated it to charity) '87 Nissan Pathfinder: 150,000 when the transmission blew for the 3rd time. Donated it to charity. '90 Honda Accord: 150,000 when the repair bill was higher than the blue book. Traded it for repairs to the Pathfinder. ---

My Honda, bought in May, 2007, just passed 9500 km (a bit less than 6000 miles). Nearly half of that is driving between Montreal and NY (five RTs). Its predecessor had 105,000 km after 17 years but a lot of that was put on by my son during summer vacation. ---
