0dd # of miles

DrFabulous · 02-01-2006, 09:06 AM

First, last night, I look down at the miles on my car... and I saw 66,663. I tried not to look when it said 66,666.

Second, I calculated the miles I've put on my car. Over the 16 month period where it sat for the most part in storage, I've averaged 11 miles a day on it. Over the last month and change, now that I drive to work and school, I'm averaging 68 miles/day.

Third, our family 03 Vue is having issues with the odometer reading.... it's said 535,630 miles for 2 days now. It's going up normally, it's just like 505,000 off.

Fourth, I figured out that at my current rate, plus some road trips I have planned, I'll be hitting 90k by the end of the year, and 100k next spring. Scary.

Off topic, but can you not manually put your Jeep into 1,2,3, or 4?

I can.

Braves299 · 02-01-2006, 10:03 AM

Oh ok. Just wasn't sure since I didn't see that in your guage cluster. You have a 5 spd. right? I don't know why GM isn't doing that yet.

My gas mileage SUCKSSSS in my Trailblazer.. litterly sucks.

last time i read it was 3 months ago or so when it read 50k somethin. im not sure if its a solder or not, but im not really motivated enough to open the dash all up and find out, or pay a dealer to do it for me, so broken it will stay. *shrug*

coupe · 02-01-2006, 12:21 PM

Yup mine too, im just waitin for mine to be messed up as bad as yours before i go to try and fix it.

nascarnate326 · 02-01-2006, 12:39 PM

mines at 128,334. If i keep it for the rest of the year, ill either hit 150k or drive it till it dies, hopefully at 150k.

GTLUVA · 02-01-2006, 12:43 PM

It's ok. You can drive mine if you're feeling the need.

Haven't heard from the Boost Factory yet, sorry. I'll be leaving at like 4 to head over there.
