Well, my Benz had 132K on it when I bought it in late September 1992.
It now has 248K on it, for a total of 116K that I put on it.  Now
considering that 1992 to 1997 was 5 years, plus 1/2 from then till
now, minus 1.25 years that it was off the road with a blown engine,
gives 5.5 - 1.25 = 4.25 years and 116000 miles for an average of 27294 
miles per year.  Actually, I have put over 40000 on it in one year
before, but that was working in Akron Ohio and living in Warsaw
Kentucky and driving between the two every weekend.  

I also worked once in Indianapolis when I lived in Kentucky and drove
it daily fo 125 miles one way!  That was before I got the present car.
