Pretty cool "I hit 100K" pic

Snapped this while on the motorway last weekend. Just finally got it off my digicam that I "killed' that weekend also. FYI digicams dislike concrete! The pic looks cool because with the gauges it now looks like I have 00000 miles. Man how cool would that be? I figure at 100K she's just getting broken in anyways right!!



BTW I got 255 miles on that tank and the most I EVER got before my latest mods was 235 and that was with the gas light on. I still had a bit left when I filled up. I figure for every 100 miles I go it doesn't count 7 because of my tires (this is only compared to a buddies car that I did road trip with BTW) so the actual mileage was probably more like 280. Also for those getting over 300 in the 3.0 slow if you have the 31" tire package your tank is 2 gallons bigger than mine. Not much to brag about but I was impressed

The speed limit here is 70 and when you only go 70 you get blown away all day long in the slow lane. The "norm" speed out on the motorways is about 90 or so. There are very few traffic cops and you have to be doing something REALLy stupid for them to stop you. They don't really care until you break 100. The nab most people using cameras. It snaps a pic of your plate and you get your fine in the mail. Them damn things are everywhere in this country.:pat:

The image showed as a red "X" for me.

Anyways, my picture is coming soon.

Currently, mine reads:

99,887

Inching my way up there.

And you're right and exact, it's just breaking in. LOL.

Mine will flip 150k next week on the way to Seattle - probably in Northern California.

Joey you only have a 16 Gallon tank? I thought all V6 4runners came with the 18.5 gallong tank. I just filled 16.3 gallons yesterday so I know I have it. BTW - I got 290 miles half city half highway driving. Came out close to 18.3 mpg average.

Victor don't ask me why but there is a difference in the tank size between the ones that came with 225's and the ones that came with 31's. I wonder if it would be a direct bolt on if I were to snag one from a junkyard with the bigger tank. Anyone have any input?

Paul yes the 1 is covered up. The slot on the white gauges is just slightly smaller than stock and makes the numbers kinda hard to see.
