So, will you tell us when it hits $98,765.43?

I've been driving before on a 500+ mile trip and for more than an hour watched the odometer because my truck was coming up on 65,432.1 miles. It was actually disappointing once it hit because I had been anticipating it for so long.

We went to Atlantic City a couple of months ago and on the way home, my car turned 100,000 miles. We actually pulled over on the shoulder and took a picture of the odometer to show our daughter. She wasn't with us and was upset when I told her it would turn 100K when she wasn't there.

That's great! I would love to see ours go below $200,000. We've only been in the house for a year and I dont see a change at all.

Congrats.

How much was it when you started? How long did it take for you to get to where you are now?

My car hit 100,000 miles the day I closed on my home last year. My mortgage was originally under $100k. I'm looking forward to having most of my payment go towards principal rather than interest.
