That's almost spooky: 99701 997.1 9:11
Where do you drive with an OAT of 60 deg C?!!? (140 deg F)
I hope that's your hot garage or an erroneous reading.

I believe the German is "Schnapszahl" (booze number) and yes, I celebrate as well.

Many have captured a similar pic, but I hit this milestone today. I didn't get my clock at 9:11, but 4:56 isn't too bad for an impromptu photo. 40K will go by with nary a glance.........

@ElectricChair got it correct. That picture was taken back in December 2022. Current odometer reading is 104xxx kms and climbing.

I've been snapping photos every 10K miles. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who does this!

I don't normally pay close attention to the odometer, but did notice earlier this year when mine hit 66666.....

My personal rule was to hit the speed equal to the odometer…easy to do until I hit about 182,000 miles…
