    Ha!

    I'm right at 48,000 miles for the year, so I don't know if I learned anything at all. At this rate it'll take 15 years to get in the million mile club.

    I topped last year’s gross, but fuel rose an equal amount. Net profit dollars were were about 3k higher but as a percentage of gross it dropped about 2%.

    So I made more money but it stayed the same and my margin shrank. You gotta be some sort of mathemagian to do that.
