Well I forgot to look at my speedo but I estimate between 4800 to 5000 miles on my baby girl.  Got home Tuesday around 4 in the afternoon,  monday was a very long day.  For those of you with driving through ontario on your bucket list..... DELETE It....  No double lane just the occasional passing lanes, no straight away stretches just curve after curve, which could be fun if you were the only one on the road and the speed limit wasn't 50  yes you heard me 50mph and lots of times i was only doing 40mph, rained almost the whole way through the curves and to top it off add fog, yep it was a hoot.. Looks like it could be beautiful country if you could actually take your eyes off the road, did that once and when i seen the tops of the trees thought its a long way down so better not be looking around.  Day and a half to get through Ontario, did it have the t-shirt won't do it again.  I had a great time, and was sad when i had to leave, such great people I hope i get the chance to see you all again sometime.
Hope everyone had a safe trip, take care out there.
