I'm at my dealer getting an oil change. I never expected this car to go this many miles. The mileage today is 595,000. I drive it approx. 10000 miles per month as an independent courier out of Las Vegas. The mileage is 99% highway miles. Yesterday I squeezed 48 mpg out of it doing 65 mph most of the day without the a/c on. The weather has been really nice here. I have replaced the IMA battery once. Other than that it's been routine maintenance only at my dealer. I love this car.

___Holy smokes!!! I left a comment asking for him to allow me to do a story although the Honda mod’s might block it. WOW! I thought Jesse’s at 350K was something. Hot ****!!!!

___Good Luck

That is unreal. Even if the battery failed at 300k that is still pretty good. 600k on 2 batteries. So much for the 100k estimates some of the magazines like to pull out.
