It's not unheard of for drivers to attempt to get the most of their vehicles. In fact, it's no longer rare for cars to easily surpass the 100,000 mile mark thanks to drivers placing an increased emphasis on maintenance. However, a man from Maine recently set an impressive record when the odometer on his 1990 Honda Accord hit 1 million, The Portland Press Herald reports.

Joe LoCicero, who is a native of the Pine Tree State was honored for the impressive achievement with a parade down the streets of Saco, Maine, as well as a 2012 Accord. According to Honda, he is the first documented person to drive one of their cars for 1 million miles.

If someone was going to get their car to reach the milestone, it's not surprising that it was LoCicero. He is known throughout New England as an expert auto techinican and has often traveled throughout the region inspecting vehicles for warranty claims and lease terms.

According to the Press Herald, LoCicero first bought the car in 1996 when it had just 74,000 miles on it. He drove about 48,000 miles a year to rack up its current total.

LoCicero is just one of many people aiming to drive their car as long as possible, and though most drivers will never get to the 1 million mile mark, there are certainly ways you can get your ride past the 100,000 or 200,000 mile mark.
