Good news everyone! I have successfully reached the funny meme number with the Miata's mileage!

I'm pretty much guaranteed to miss cool numbers in my car, it has one of those LCDs that only displays one odometer at a time and I keep it set to the trip odometer because I got too used to using that as a proxy gas gauge in my old car.

aww that's a bummer Trip meter is always my gas monitor for me too, so I get it

I've had my current car for several years and I'm still not used to having a gas gauge that works.

It's weird running shitboxes for a long long time and then getting something nice, right? I was driving sub-$2000 crap for like 15 years and finally managed to work my way up to a $12,000 2013 CT200h and everything just WORKS all the time, it's amazing!

I went from a nearly 30 year old Volvo with translunar mileage to a total creampuff low-mile Honda Fit. I still prefer the Volvo's seats. Better support, and they were heated.

I had a 1990 740 Turbo for a while, I miss that thing, it was a champion, a true master craft of what a station wagon should be Also I had the boost turned up to "yes, all of it please" so it tended to boogie 😅

It's hard to say goodbye to a beloved classic. May the Honda Fit grow to fill the Volvo-shaped hole in your soul 🌹

God my Miata has so many miles... But it doesn't look like it.

They really do hold up great if you take care of em After so many years of my projects being 200k+ mile messes I decided to try for a low mile one finally, it's nice honestly, I haven't even had one stuck bolt yet!
Avatar
And I intend to take as good care if not better than my Miata's previous owners. With it being an SC car and my insistence that it never see snow, I don't foresee any stuck bolts on my end, either!

If this were a cybertruck it would have given you a free hand job

Yeah but it would have ripped it off too, so I'm glad it was just a little Mazda. I don't have *that* brand of dysphoria so it would be very inconvenient for me lmfao

Unless you've really recently changed that cam belt.. here's a friendly reminder that it was due about 3000 miles ago .. Also, nice.
Avatar
Oh yeah I did that when I got it about 10k miles ago, I was planning to do it when I hit 60k but I did it about 1000 early cuz the water pump pulley bearing failed on the drive home when I got it lmao Luckily that's the only major problem it's had though, so that's fine :)

Good reminder for me to buy another NA. Also, nice.

Hell yeah they're fun! Do it!

Nice. I missed the 420 one though!

Oooooo but the excellent purple!

I got them from superbrightleds dot com. It’s a very cool upgrade if you can manage to get into your gauge cluster.

Eventually I'm gonna get some Revlimiter gauges in there (he has so many designs, they're so cool!) and LED upgrades will happen at the same time :)
