Your Million Miler total would also increase by 462 miles.
Thanks for the explanation. I never paid close attention to the minimum EQP before since I had always qualified on EQM. After the December 2011 change, the MMM has not been subject to the 500-mile minimum, so my MMM counter only increases 308 for this segment, which is the base mileage calculation.
