How close to the moon are you?
 
Just had a strange thought . . the average distance between the earth & moon is 238,857 miles. At 147k miles on the clock, my Bimmer would be almost 2/3 of the way there, with a transmission that might fail at anytime :eek

How far along are you? Think you'll make it? Or are you already on your way back?

my thunderbird is close... 160K with a seriously messed up tranny.

I'm studying for my last Calc test, so math is running through my head. Sorry.

I could have put that in a parametric equation for you... ;)
