Milestone...sort of
I was out of town for work the past few days, so I wasn't around for this but the g/f knows how I like dumb things like cool odometer numbers, so the other day she drove around the town park until the digits lined up and got this pic:
When it hit 333,000 miles I reset the trip meter so everything would be 3's, but I guess there's a small discrepancy between the odometer and the trip meter. One of them lost or gained a mile and a half from the other one. Of course, there's a mile swing in there because there's no 1/10th mile digit in the odo. Oh well, its still a fun pic for me. Here's the car at the park:

Nt yet, I have to form, just haven't been to the dealer to have it signed.
I've had the 250,000 km badge for a while though.

Nope, that's how it rides. There's a tank full of vegetable oil in the back and sometimes several 5-gallon containers of oil and that's how it rides.

That's chill, dude! I've never put more than 315K on a car. My last MB had 305K when I sold it.
