well, have to give the chaps who clicked these due credit ! i always look at these readings (you know, when you hit 1000, then 10,000 ; 999 , etc etc) and get kicked, though the wife gives me a smile ( like those reserved for the kids!)
ofcourse, now i wish i carried a camera with me ( or owned a camera phone!)
it took me sometime to relaise that you guys were actually talking about the odometer. initially i was wondering what was wrong with the meters themselves.
