It's not so common to see vehicles over that number.
228K on my 1998 Saturn Wagon (as seen at NYC Maker Faires and VCFs in
the mid-west and NJ). Gonna be sad to have to find a replacement
(hauls stuff, rear hatch, over 5'8" of rear storage, manual
transmission, 38-42mpg on the highway). Not as roomy as a Microbus
(in which I've transported two H960 racks simultaneously including the
Unibus PDP-11 gear that came out of the racks) but gets better milaege
and has heat in the winter.
