Remarkable!  for an east coast vehicle!.....on the west coat we never 
considered them broke in until 500,000

I truthfully believe many out here have 2-300,000 or more when finally 
parked....it's so easy to rack up the miles.....especially when gas was only 
$0.35-0.70@ gallon...

Up until 10 yrs ago...everyone bragged about how many times the odo rolled 
over....now the same people swear it's under 100,000!

I know my 1st 65  racked up 60k  in 3 yrs....only used for going to work and 
back [ 100 mile RT]...I had a Vette, Caddy, and several motorcycles to 
exercise...

Prior to this year at Portland....I would've said you had easy miles.....but 
this year you almost had to pave the roads you drove on!

Congrats  and my hat off to you!
