There was a guy here in Milwaukee who had a volvo that reached 1,000,000 miles. Not only did he have a car that lasted forever, but volvo gave him a brand new car and put his old car in to one of their museums.
Post milestone or just plain fun odometer pics!

I'll do it for you (but at 3700 rpm)
I-15 to Vegas, I was just keeping up with traffic while getting passed a bunch too. About to hit 295k on it now. Will try to remember to get a 300k pic.

Well, since everyone seems to be posting higher speed pics, I'll feel a little more comfortable posting this. To my credit, it was a 70mph speed limit area, and my speedo is off by 3-4mph because I use slightly smaller than OEM tires (actually probably doing 75mph in this pic)

i'm using stock tire size on my integra 195/55/15 and the speedo is still off 3-4mph.
at 70mph, i'm really going 67. it gets worse as i go faster. going to get 16's in the near future to correct this or atleast make it more accurate.
not a mile stone but my latest odo picture taken 6/9/09, has 91k now

Interesting, your idle RPMs are lower than mine -- maybe a difference between AT and MT?

Maybe, but the correct idle is 750 +/- 50
mine is almost always 750.

Yea that's what I read in the FSM. Mine usually idles at around 850-900 and I was told by the Acura dealership that it's "normal" and "in spec" -shrug- It's been like that since I got it, so I'm not too worried.

Isn't the Tacoma Narrows the bridge that did a crazy little dance and fell from wind, in the '50-'60's?
NVM: looked it up... The new one looks substantially stronger..lol ( It was 1940 fwiw )

Dude you just opened yourself up for a whole can of criticism. *Puts in earplugs and ducks for cover*
