A Mile Stone so I had to

On the way home from work my baby reached a mile stone, or should I say 100,000 mile stone? So I had to take a picture.

29.7 mpg, my goodness. I can barely get that going downhill from the mountains. Congrats, a great milestone. My recent milestone was 10K last month!

Thanks,

She is a great car and I have a great commute so it is kind of easy for me to get 28-29 mpg. 100,000 and drives like new! http://********************/smile/emthup.gif

Yep the warranty thing sucks but I figure she is worth it! Truth is I just bought her last month. And I have a great dealer who gives me a great deal and lets me drive anyhting on the lot for a loaner. http://********************/smile/emthup.gif

Re: (-Pascal)

Congrats! Great avg as well... I just hit 85000 miles; it's kind of sad because somehow I feel the days are numbered.
I think that your MPG is more of a mile stone than the miles you've gone

Thanks! I hope she goes another 100 or better, I was kind of planning on it that's why I continue to buy Volvo's. The average MPG is great I get lucky with a my commute that has me at consistent speeds for a long time. Rachael and I drive 125 miles a day to and from work. http://********************/smile/emcocktl.gif http://********************/smile/emthup.gif

My MPG improved greatly when I went to 93 octane. I was hitting 29 MPG easily from Reading to Philly Airport (and this is at "spirited progress" on the Turnpike). Before, it was ~26 MPG tops with 91. Anyhoo, congrats on the 100K!!!!

You and me both! Make that "2" into a "1" and then you have MY average MPG...

Here's to the next 100k!

1) You can hide the message and leave the triangle showing.

2) He's got fuel consumption showing, which again, will hide the message.

Between the triangle and the light on the dash, I betcha 10 to 1 the driver's door is open.
