I qualify twice over for the 150k mile club, '87 Olds 88, 150238 miles + miles racked up without a working speedometer, '89 Buick Le Sabre, 162546 miles. Can I apply for a combined 300k mile membership?.
Roger.

Hopefully mine crosses 250 soon, at 243xxx now.. I don't know that I'd count the GXP as low mileage at 46k. Maybe five years from now, but by then it'll have 100k on it too.

I have no problem maintaining the mileage on here for my cars, as I pretty much do that anyway in my sig

I always forget to update my mileage on the forums where it's still in my siggy. That's why I just left it out.

That is why I put 160 for my Maxima; it only has 155, so it will be close enough for quite a few months. And the monte gets 3-5k a year so it will be cose enough for quite a while as well

I don't think that car's seen 1300 miles a year for the last few years though, am I right?

No, I meant his bike. It's just one breathable cover, and our shop is so dusty, it's terrible.

If they made a hermetically sealed bubble, size GTO, Lane would have his in one.

Then would the mileage be based on the body or engine?

172k on the car with 55k on the motor.
I am all for a high mile marker. I think it should be based upon the highest mile vehicle in the garage. Let it up to the user to designate. I myself would not list the mileage of my truck unless it was my only vehicle. Being a Bonneville family, I would represent.
Hey, Matt, maybe we could even do an engine in the chassis club or even number of chassis with the same engine.

Or have it in three groups, 1)original engine, transmission & chassis, 2) Chassis only, 3) Drive Train only. - BC
