    I've just hit the million mile mark for actual driving miles. I was only paid for about 930,000.

    Ain't that the truth. I would love the pay owed to me for all the miles I turned and should have been paid for. I would be on the beach somewhere with my wife drinking a cold beverage with an umbrella in it.

    1.8 million, almost 1.9 million and accident/incident/ticket free since July 1999. Not too bad when you take into account most of my miles have been in the NYC metro and surrounding areas prior to moving to New Mexico two years ago. Looking at maybe another million or so before I hang it up and come inside somewhere.

    I was asked once by a local news reporter. Sir, are you a Blue Collar Man? No, young lady, I am the owner and manager of a mobile where house. Where it is, is my house. I like white V neck Tee shirts.

    First new truck was a 94 freightliner cat/9 speed but 444,000 on it
    Second new one was a 97 pete 377 cat/super 10 that I logged 487,000 on
    Third new one was a 2001 pete 379 Detroit/super 10 that I put 535,000 on
    Forth new one was a 2004 pete 379 cat/super 10 rolled it with only 52,000 on it. They fixed it I got it back and drove it all the way to 817,000.
    Fifthe new one was a 2009 kw cat/10 speed only put 122,000 on that one
    Current truck is a 2010 pete cat/10 speed with 619,000
    I don't know why I always keep track of the mileage just did
    So I quess that puts me a little over 2.9 million in 20 years
