Thumbs up Million Mile Joe in his 1990 Honda Accord...

Nice, real nice. Just let's you know how long you can drive the car if you take care of it.

Yeah, my dad had a 91' Accord LX with 230,xxx miles. It just kept on falling apart so we got rid of it last August. Last thing what went wrong was the crankshaft pulley decided to fall off. Got a 2012 Focus SE hatchback with Sport package instead

I had a '91 Accord that was in great shape when some one stole it out of the drive way of a rent house I had. It was a little light but ran real good with just a few problems here and there. I think I did have to get it towed once from home. Had about 258,000 when it was stolen. Seen it around the city for a couple of years but it has finally disappeared.

Irv pretty much makes it to all the regional VCOA meets...Heck, he needs excuses to drive! Met him is 2007 at Parkville, Mo at the June MidSommar meet and again the next summer in Lindsborg Ks. He's not someone I'd care to know...but he does like his beer!

Well, I've never meet a science teacher that wasn't weird. I really hope he is able to get that car to 3,000,000 miles. He's at that age that his health could stop him.
