I just picked my car up on Friday, and the Odometer is not showing the last whole number. The \'8\' will be missing the right side or something along those lines. I called Westowne and they are going to set up an appointment to have it checked. But to know something is wrong with the car already, after waiting all this time.:(

Has anyone else experienced this and is it just a small glich?

I\'m going to put my front wheels on jack stands and put it in reverse. What do you think, leaving it overnight should bring my odometer back to zero? :D

You\'re taking a pic of your Odometer when it hits 082880 right? :p

My/our family\'s Protege just passed 82300kms today. I didn\'t even think about that.

Anyways, I put 38000kms the 1st yr I had the PRO and now 3 yrs later I avg. 27000/yr. I think I\'ll avg 24-25000 kms/yr now in the 3 since it\'s stick and my mom can\'t drive it (where\'s that evil sign when you need it?) :D

That\'s my B-day Aug 28 1980 :)

PH stands for Prahova (the province in Romania where we lived).

So now you know the meaning behind my avatar.
