Default 99999 miles!

After 29 years and 4 months of service she finally reached the magic marker I drove about 20.000 of them the past 4 1/2 years, way more than I thought I drove

It's always fun to watch the odometer roll over to all zeros again. My owned since new '78 is currently reading about 86,500 for the third time. Granted that's kilometers being as I'm in Canada but it's still almost 180,000 miles and most of that was put on during its first 4 years when it was my daily driver!
