Pretty amazing mileage. But you are different, an original owner (I assume),
and you pay close attention to every detail of your engine and van. Most
folks today are simply not used to doing that, which includes checking the
oil and other fluids regularly, at least every other fill up.  Back in the
old days gas station attendants checked these things because they made more
money on service than they did selling gas.  Today they make more money
selling junk food than selling gas.  But, modern cars also need far less
maintenance.

We made it home about an hour ago. Uneventful trip. 306,108 now on the
odometer.

Dennis,

Hope you are having a good trip.  We crossed over I95 on I40 in NC on Friday
in our Westy seven miles before the odometer rolled over 330K, not on one
engine, of course.  This took rebuilding the 2.1L wbx once, replacing it
with a tiico, replacing that with a warranty tiico, and finally replacing
that with a Subaru.

Happy trails.
Ed
