300,000 Miles!

John's junior year of high school his father, Bob, made a deal with John. "Get a scholarship to a university, graduate and I will buy you an SUV of your choice upon completion."

Never one to not take on a challenge, John did just that. His senior year of high school he obtained All-State (for Illinois)Lineman status which made him very appealing to multiple universities. He was recruited to play at schools such as Purdue, Kentucky, Northwestern, Wisconsin and University of Illinois and choose to attend Northern Illinois University.

True to his word, Bob, rewarded John with his SUV of choice - a black 2001 Chevrolet Tahoe with all of the bells and whistles. This month the tahoe hit a milestone: 300,000 miles. Bob called Chevrolet with the news if this outstanding fete and (insert drum roll music here) they sent John a coupon for a FREE oil change. Ohhhh...aahhh.

To our readers out there, please feel free to comment your favorite memory of time spent in the Tahoe.
