I am taking the VX to Washington!

My only concern is putting that many miles on the VX. I take care of her, but she is getting old.

I look forward to seeing you in WA with your VX. As far as putting mileage on your odometer, just disconnect the Speedometer Cable for the long road trip and travel with the flow of traffic. Re-connect the Speedometer Cable once you get to WA. Mileage problem solved.

Driving across the country in the VX is always a treat! But I feel ya, none of our VXes are getting any younger. The thought of someday not have a VX kinda freaks me out.

Oh, I don't care for the odometer, I am more concerned with something breaking. She has NEVER failed me on the trail, no matter what I put her through, so its only fitting that she conk out in BFE Wyoming somewhere.

I don't there is really any traffic to flow with where I am going YIPPEEE!!!!

When I bought the VX, she had just under 115K miles. I drove it 800 miles home the next day. It will be 3 years in December...my how time flies, and today I went over 129K. That's pretty good, figure an extra 10-15% since I have bigger tires, so around 16K miles in 3 years. I am gonna do 2000 on this little adventure. My back is already hurting from thinking of sitting in the recaro for hours at a time. Throw in the 26 mile hike with a 40lb pack, I will be a bundle of fun when I get to Washington.

There is definitely a lot of BFE in Wyoming. If you pass through Reno, LMK.
