IIRC it's about 300 feet. You need to account for mistakes and also a little extra here and there that will get cut off and become scrap.
I think 300 feet is enough for a buggy. I have about 140 feet into my cage/front bumper/rear bumper...
Wastage can be mitigated by making the larger pieces first, so if you have a problem you can make a few smaller chunks from the 'mistake' piece.

Well damn. Guess he could always buy 300 feet then give me the leftovers so i can build a cage as well. 
Oh well, so i'm off a few feet.

maybe he was thinking full exocage with integrated bumpers and rock sliders and some axle locaters and a little bit left over

I have close to 300 foot in mine, but it is a little overkill.
I have over 200' in mine, counting bumpers & sliders.

I used 1.75" DOM w/ .120 wall for the main cage.
thanks guys - i probably won't do quite as much as you've done - maybe i'll build a good skeleton and perhaps someday if i get good enough at wheeling to need a hardcore cage i can add to it!
