You won't get the $30K deduction for your donation. I was going to (not the full 30k) but learned "For charitable deduction purposes, each mile is valued at 3 cents per mile. The receipt of miles may reduce the tax deductibility of your contribution."
So basically if you donate $30K you get the 600k miles. The 600k miles are valued at $18k. You will therefore only be able to deduct $12k
