Modded? If so, it wouldn't meet the criteria. Well, that and I think the vehicle has to be less than 6 months old.

Would be interesting to see someone even with a modified vehicle drive the same route (~8,000 miles worth) in a similar amount of time to see how much of an improvement he/she could get.
