Winter Update

2008.12.03 - Removed regular tires and put on studded snow tires. This will probably be my last winter with these tires, since they have lost most of their studs.

Caravan odometer = 170,047 miles

Stereo

On November 26, I took out the Alpine stereo. It wasn't able to stay on (only intermittent power), so I removed it and re-installed the factory radio.

AM/FM STEREO electronically tuned, Dynamic Noise Reduction*, bass and treble contols, cassette tape player with automatic reverse, and integral digital clock.

* Dynamic Noise Reduction is a trademark of National Semiconductor Corporation.

We Did It!

On November 22, 2008, we landed on a personal milestone. I forgot to keep an eye on it when I was driving home from work. While in park, with the van shut off, on my way out the door, I glanced and celebrated. I didn't miss the rollover.

Caravan odometer = 170,000 miles!

Final Countdown to 170,000

Caravan odometer = 169,998.

Two more miles!

I filled up today with 89 Octane, 10% Ethanol.
271.8 miles / 13.141 gallons = 20.7 MPG

Caravan odometer = 169,864 miles.
