Until I saw this! 11 million miles in ~3 years is going to take some beating - I think you win!

Rictus - what do you do again, that gives you so many miles?!

at the time I was regional network manager for the southwest and used to go all over the region (used my car allowance and fuel claim to run it), done about 40k work and the same social.
