Well, let's see. The van's at 82,351 miles now, and it's 2010. The mc
and rear brake job was done when the van was at 61,795 in 2006, so
that's 20,556 miles and four years ago.

Wow. 5,000 miles a year. I don't even drive that much. Work out of the
house. Ride my bicycle for shopping or haircuts. Van sits for several
days at a time, undriven.
