Thanks Guys.

I really needed to give myself a kick in the keester and I figured this was the best way to do it. I really enjoy( friendly) competition and look forward to the challenge I've set for myself and anybody who beats me to their own goal gets to say "HA!! Beat ya'!"

Darin, I have every faith in your ability to make that Insight do that very thing. After the trouncing you handed out in Montreal last year,....

I have checked my odo and speed against GPS, clock, and mile markers, and it is surprisingly close. On a 3,000+ mile trip, one keeps ones mind busy as best one can.

D_Dave, I think I'd have to shoot for 150 to really equal what you do with that monster you drive.

I'm thinking that 100 could be done easier if I used my car to commute ONLY and the truck for any other trips. However, I use my car for as much as I can and save the truck for towing, hauling, or when I can't take the car( a foot of snow comes to mind).

The race is on!
