My car odometer hit 222,222 miles on the exact day I moved to Phoenix

I bought that old Honda Civic back in college and it just kept going. When I saw all those twos lined up on the dashboard, it felt like a weird sign, especially since I was unloading boxes at my new apartment. Has anyone else had a number pop up at a big life moment like that?

My old beater hit 123456 miles last month.

Oh man, that's a crazy coincidence with the mileage. I always get tripped up on the date thing though, because your odometer is just total miles driven, not a date. So it's more like a neat number pattern than an actual calendar sign, which is still cool. My old truck hit 300,000 on a random Tuesday when I was just getting groceries.

Yeah, @kevinking, that's a solid milestone too.

Read somewhere that @kevinking's 123456 thing is called a "straight flush" on the odometer. Pretty rare to catch it exactly.
