Just 'guestimating' the distance, I'd say my house and mailbox are way further apart than the lighthouse and boat! And no, I don't use my car to check the mail! Maybe I should- looks like a good way to save wear and tear on the car if you're just using it to traverse your driveway! :P

Just for giggles I did the math. The trip from dock to house( I guessed about 200 feet)would have to be done once a week in order for the car to have 50 miles on it. :rolleyes:
