Got home today and noticed my odometer reading 012345 ... am I a geek or what? I had noticed a day or so ago when i had 0123xx that it would pass this mark but I didnt expect it when I pulled into my driveway so I had to break out the camera...

Love it! 
I borrowed a friend's station wagon beater a while back to move a few items, and while I was driving it, I watched it turn to 100,000 miles (with an analog wheel-type odometer)--it's life's little things that matter!

Haha.. that cost me over $60. I remember when I paid around $22 for a fill up and not too long ago either... oh well.
In other news, i've been getting some horrible MPG's lately. Currently 14.2 mpg 100% local street driving though, mostly short trips, guess that explains that. Usually around 16 mpg with some highway driving mixed in. I got nearly 19 mpg on a recent trip to Atlantic City though..
Speaking of that.. my friend keeps telling me all cars perform at their best fuel economy when you drive at 60 or 65 mph. Is that true? I figure the faster the better as long as your not constantly accelerating. Hmm.... well we don't buy these cars for fuel economy so who cares but it got me thinking
