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

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.

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 🌹
