2023 Mileage Awards
MARC Mileage Program Awards and Statistics
Mileage Year 2022
Betty Fisher, Chair
This year, for the first time since 2003, one name is conspicuous for its absence from this award list: Tom Laupp, of the Old Fort Model A’s in Indiana, had an accident early in 2022 which totaled his 1930 Tudor. Tom and his Tudor joined the Mileage Program in 1998 and had been (and still is, at this point) our high mileage leader, with a whopping 282,766 miles credited to his record. Tom’s engine number has been retired in the Mileage Program after so many years and miles of faithful service. Tom has advised that he will not be replacing his Model A, so we will miss him. Godspeed and best of luck, Tom!
For mileage year 2022, there were 1,193 active MMP members with 1,355 active vehicles. (See my column in the May-June 2022 issue for a definition of what is considered an “active member” and “active vehicle.”) Of these, 524 members reported mileage for 668 vehicles.
We registered 90 new vehicles in the program since this time last year.
We received reports from 83 regions (66 got awards) and 18 Unaffiliated members (six got awards).
Total reported mileage for 2022 was 935,089.
We sent out 165 awards. Forty-two were first-time awards; four were for mileage in excess of 100,000; and one was for mileage in excess of 200,000.
As always, I invite you to contact me with any questions or concerns you have about the Mileage Program. Congratulations to everyone on the following list who received awards for mileage year 2022.
