      I got 2 trips to Melbourne coming up, 1000km each way, then I've got several trips to Brisbane next year which is more like 1200km each way (I think its 1200, it might be more).

      This is on top of the 1000km a week I do getting to/from work ;)

            I own all of you. Left Houston a week ago Wednesday and drove to Kansas in the touring, 620 miles with a 2 year old in the car. Got there, went to a funeral Thursday and Friday flew to Atlanta with a buddy. Bought an e30 at the Atlanta airport at 10:30 that night. Left there Saturday morning and drove the 1,000 miles back to Kansas on Saturday, got in there at 1:30am Sunday morning. Left Monday and drove to my old college town, 200 miles round trip. Then Left Kansas Thursday morning and drove back to Houston again with the 2 year old.

            All in all 2500 miles in a week.

              That is all well and good Brodee but if we are talking about a week then I have you beat. 1700 miles from Seattle to L.A. spent a day in L.A. drove to San Diego and back to L.A. 260 miles or so, 2275 to Mexico, spent a day there and 2275 back to L.A. The trip to Mexico was in the Tundra full with trailer and 6 year old Lab that was my best friend and died 2 years ago :( and honestly slept between stops. 6510 miles in 8 days! Plus Mexican road miles SHOULD be good for doubleage as the roads SUCK!!!!!!!!!!

                I make the trip to FL about six times a year. 905 miles each way from one house to the other.

                I bought the cabby in New Jersey and drove it back in a snowstorm. Fun times. Not sure on the mileage - guessing around 600.

                  Damn, got me beat, even with the 2 year old factored in!

                  Nice drive though Ryan, I've definately never gone that far in one setting, I'd have to be pissing in a bottle or something. My Dad left Kansas once and drove the 510 miles to Denver non-stop. He was in an '82 Honda Accord he bought new, ran about 60mph the whole way.
