Answer
If it was replaced correctly by law:
#1. The change must be reported to the government. #2. The exact reason for the change must be documented. #3. The title must reflect unknown mileage. Have a great day.

well as i said the numbers just don't seem right,if the car got a new speedo, for yrs 97-02 it would have had to have averaged over 30,000 miles a year.but if it had a new speedo and it was rolled ahead to close to actual miles then it doesn't seem to unreal,but my guess is it got a different speedo and it had more miles so they had no choice but to leave em on there.thats why i asked if they were dated.
