Serious question, my truck rolled over 222,222 miles on I-70 near Hays and I pulled off just to take a photo
I was driving back from a job in Denver last Tuesday and the odometer clicked past 222,222 right as I passed the Hays exit, so I pulled onto the shoulder and sat there for 5 minutes watching it like an idiot. This is the same 2003 Silverado I bought for $2,300 with a busted water pump that I fixed myself in my driveway, and honestly seeing that number hit made all those knuckle busting weekends feel worth it. What number on your odometer or hour meter actually made you stop and take a picture?

Man, do you know how many people would've just kept driving and not even noticed that? I get it though, that 2003 Silverado has been through it with you and hitting a number like that feels like the truck is telling you it made it. I had a similar thing with my old Civic when it rolled past 300,000, I pulled into a gas station and just stared at the dash for a minute like a weirdo. There's something about a car you fixed with your own hands that makes every mile mean more, you know? That pic is gonna be worth more to you than the truck itself someday, pretty sure of it.
