Just rolled over 239,700 :p It is up in the air now, but my Grandparents have a house in Kisseme(sp?). (by Orlando) I am going to be a good grandson and visit them. But I have always wanted to go to the keys because I think it would be a cool ride and I will have my flyrod in the trunk I need to do more flyfshing and FL is just the place.

Probably sometime in December.

Only problem is my Grandparents may not be down their then.

218,975.
Averaging just over 1200 a month. Gonna have to try harder if I'm going to catch up with you guys. No major expenses yet (needs some suspension work). Just dumb little stuff. Will get shocks real soon at the very least.
Probably have at least one bad glow plug. All non-breakdown maintenance will have to wait until after son's and daughter's cars are fixed. Figures.

Yea, reality bites. I need to dump some money into my 300D soon. Facing some major decisions on rust. Got a little in a lot of places on that car and a lot in a few places. Need to either fix it or just let it go. I keep waiting for him to wreck it before I make the decision but he is too good of a driver.

Just hit 333,333 today. I was trying to do it at around 100MPH.

I was up around 95 or so when this retard from China, (no offense to any Chinese, but he must have been retarded)decided to merge onto the hwy and go from the on ramp to the fast lane without looking, all at once.

Anyway, I was sure glad that my cars brakes are as good as they are.

Awe, you should have reset your trip odo to be at 333.3 at the same time. I know, picky, picky.

Congrats though. 333333 is pretty impressive. I have 7-9 years before I get there unless something dramatic changes in my life.
