Well, it's a 1990, so that means 350 days in 15 years - 23 and a third days per year, or 560 hours. Do you commute in your van? If you have a 45-min commute, that would take care of 7.5 hours/week, or 375/year. Which leaves 185 hours for fun trips - less than 4 per week. Which isn't really that outrageous, you know!

On the other hand, if you don't commute in the van, it's another story...

But what I want to know is how you got your van to live for 333,333 miles!
