I have just a couple of quick notes this time. Our 2001 Honda Accord rolled over 300,000 miles this past week.<\/p>\n

\"299,999<\/a>

299,999 miles…<\/p><\/div>\n

\"300,000<\/a>

300,000 miles!<\/p><\/div>\n

We bought the Hond as a used vehicle in 2004 and it had about 62,000 on it at that time. We have put nearly 240,000 on it in the ensuing 9 years without a single mechanical failure. The Honda gets regular maintenance, the key to its longevity, I think. Other than hitting\u00a0 deer twice – one time required body work and a new hood – it has seen steady daily service in all kinds of weather and road conditions. We had always kidded ourselves that if the Honda hit 300K we would get rid of it. Now we will try for 500K…<\/p>\n

I have finished a Califoria Rally video that consists mostly of seacoast and wildlife clips. Running time is 9:41, fairly long, and be warned that there is a fair amount of wind noise on some of the clips. Lesson re-learned: always take a tripod and external noise-cancelling microphone, neither of which I did this trip. Still I think the clip is mildly interesting. Take a look and let me know what you think.<\/p>\n
