There are tons of songs and stories about perseverance taking a person over long distances. 500 miles? 1,000 miles? Well, what about 3,000,000 miles?
Irvin Gordon, a native of Long Island, NY, and his 1966 Volvo P1800 have together traveled over three-million miles in their 48-year relationship. That would be like circling the globe, 120 times! Gordon fell in love with the car, and bought it brand new on a Friday. He was so in love, in fact, that he was driving it back to the dealership on Monday morning for its 1,500-mile check-in. Since then, the car has seen more than 30 drive belts, 900 oil changes, and more gallons of gasoline than our wallets would care to think about.
But, he passionately insists, the trips have not been about getting to those mileage marks. They've been about the adventure and thrill of traveling.
