Showerthought: my odometer turned over 100,000 on a '69 Galaxie and I almost pulled over to celebrate
Hit 100,000 on the clock driving back from a car show in Parma last Sunday, and I gotta say, that number hit me harder than I expected. It's not even the real mileage since the odometer rolled once already back in the 80s, but seeing all those zeros line up made me think about every oil change and tune-up that got it there. My honest take is that guys who baby a classic and never drive it are missing the whole point, because the wear and tear is the story. I change the oil every 3,000 miles like clockwork and that old 390 still pulls strong, and I'd rather have that than a garage queen with 12,000 original miles. Is there a mileage number on your car that feels like a real milestone to you, or do you just reset the trip and keep rolling?
