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. :lol:

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. :poke:

Then would the mileage be based on the body or engine? :banana: 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. :beerchug:

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