His was from 2008. No idea where he’s at now.

I’d be thrilled to get to 448. What did it have when you bought it?

I don't remember offhand.

I THINK about 160,000 ... but can't swear to it offhand.

I just drive the hell out of it.

(Friday I did Bossier City LA --> Ruston LA --> El Dorado AR --> Bossier City. Saturday was Bossier City --> Jasper TX --> Newton TX to Whispering Creek RV park and resort for overnight --> Broaddus TX --> San Augustine TX --> Bossier City. This weekend was one tank of gas, too.)

Why?

1/4" play and a slow leak doesn't sideline a vehicle.

It DOES mean that I'm scheduling a "new" rack (well, another RackDoctor.NET unit!) for this winter.
