That's a nice combination, Chris, complete with a "Florida Room".
As to the mileage deficit, I can top that. My 2007 Volvo V70 has only
7000 miles on it. We bought it just before my wife's health began to
decline, and our traveling was extremely limited. Great car, but, like
yours, not much ground clearance. My old 1994 Chevrolet S-10 pickup
gets the rough duty.

Well this is my “truck” with its “trailer”. The car (a 4x4, but with not much ground
clearance) has about 14,000 miles on it, although it’s nearly 3 years old; I bought it about 6 weeks ago.
The caravan has less than 500 miles on it, bought at about the same time. We are using the pair of vehicles to
spend more time relaxing in the countryside. This is a field in Northamptonshire, near the Grand Union canal, at
a village called Stoke Bruerne.

Nice clouds Jim. All those rigs are newer than my Dakota, and probably have
less than my 174,000+ miles. (sigh.)
Mooser note: When we lived in the PNW ('76-'82) it was a Ford 250 with a
10' camper, and weekends in the Cascades..

Yes, I agree that location has a big influence on what one encounters in
the way of transportation. As I have mentioned previously, we are in the
corner of several counties that have hilly terrain and lakes, so trucks are
very popular for their ground clearance and towing power. As I eat
breakfast each morning, I am watching traffic on one of two favorite
arteries into rural Moore County, home to the Jack Daniels distillery, and
I would estimate that half of the vehicles are trucks. But, I also see an
occasional Jaguar, BMW and Land Cruiser, and a lot of various types of
Jeeps.
