Nope, me too. I was really excited when I hit 198,891 mi a few weeks
ago. Just about at 199,991 now. Of course, right after that I'll hit
200,000, which'll be worth noticing to

And then what? We have only the one car. It's been a little cold to walk
and it's a long way to Santa Fe...

Why do you guys drive your cars further after an apocryphal event such as
this? I'd park it and put it on eBay.

A few months ago, I had 220022 on the main odometer and 200.2 on the trip
odometer.
While not a palindrome, I recently had 22334
I thought I was the only person who noticed stuff like that.

The 300TD hit 174471 early last week when I pulled into the parking space at
work. Next up will be 175571 in another two to three weeks, but I doubt it'll
strike twice.
