What's The Furtherest Your Ute Has Travelled?

"Travel all over the country side...ask the Leylands,ask the Leylands!!"

Often in Ute Musters they have a "Furtherest Travelled" section...so was just wondering how far some of the BeautUtes.com members have travelled in their Utes?
Whether it's for a Muster or B&S ball,or just a general cruise round Australia.

Let's see who has driven the furthest!!

As a kid my parents took my brother and I around australia in a Hino bus... took 13 months. the longest I've been on my own at once is 1700kms from Albany to Coral Bay in 25hrs. Did a trip from Kal to Coral Bay with a mate, ended up taking 19hrs with a 2yr old!

I've had my ute for 26 months and at last count have done 112,000kms in that time. Trips include:
-Nullabour 7 times
-Esperance - Perth return 6 times
-Canberra - melbourne - Adelaide via great ocean rd
-Canberra - sydney numerous times
-Canberra - Harvey Bay-Cairns-Northington??-Mt Isa-Longreach-Emerald-Brisbane-Sydney-Canberra
and Kalgoorlie - Perth and Esperance - Kalgoorlie about 10 times
Kalgoorlie to Boyup Brooke and return

hmmm lot of time on the road
what hurts more is that it adds up to about $20,000 worth of fuel not to mention servicing.
