Default Here's to another 100k miles...

My baby hit a little milestone yesterday. She now has 100k miles under her belt, and is still going strong. I bought her two years ago w/ 50k miles on her, and as my daily driver, Ive had absolutely no problems with her (outside of the general rattles which we all experience). These are great cars, and I don't doubt she'll give me another good 100k + miles from here on out

Let me just say though that trying to get those last two miles for the pics (which I had to pull off the freeway to do) seemed to take forever. Sorry the pics are dark, I had to take them at night....

With one more mile to go...



And hitting the milestone...

funny thing was, I almost missed it. I was at 99980, and my commute home from work is 20+ miles. So as I was driving in bumper to bumper traffic yesterday on may home last night, with it raining and all, I was too busy paying attention to my driving conditions and listening to my music, that it didnt dawn on me that I was suppposed to be paying attention to the odometer at the same time too to get pics of the mileage!!! I almost missed it! haha

Congrats. If you think of it, you should zero out Trip B and use that as your odometer. It will be like driving a new car.

Should go anotther 100K without worries. I hate to see the miles rack up on my car, but I hate not driving it even more. Such a waste not to enjoy a car like these.
