    Sentimental Snapshot

    Perhaps I'm the only one, but seeing the odometer turn 88888 made me stop and capture the moment as if it were a child's birthday. I'm probably going to pull off the side of the road and have a moment when it turns 100,000.

    Am I the only one who take pictures of these sort of things?

    I rolled 50,000 last year and dreaded seeing that 4 go away. One year later I am on the verge of 51K. On the plus side, tires and gas have never lasted this long.

    I did the same thing as my 2007 f350 climbed through the #s. Started with 11111, and so on.
    Do it with most of my vehicles. Few months ago the excursion hit 122,222. Just something satisfying about the numbers being the same.

    I rolled 300,000 on my 2006 F-650 Cummins just a week ago. In related news my buddy has 734,000 miles on his 2004 Excursion V10. At that point the transmission disintegrated. Unbelievable numbers on odometer pic taken.

    My father's 1988 gmc pickup was approaching 333k.
    I reset the trip odometer at just the right time so it would also read 333.3 at the same time.
    My dbag older brother borrowed the truck and I missed it by about a dozen miles. Was quite upsetting to 17yo me.
