Congrats Steve!!

Now you gotta update your sig!

 

Way to go Steve!!! I'm about 75k behind you, but coming on hard...

 

Good to go. That's a pretty short list all things considered.

 

Congrats Steve, 60k more and I'll catch up with ya.

 

I like how the picture shows you going 100mph I hope mine last that long.

 

Nice! I hope I can keep my list that short on my way to 300.....I got 175,000 to go!

 

Rofl, I think those are km's. Way to go on the 300,000 miles!

 

Steve,

That is alot of miles good deal. Just wondering, are you running dino or synthetic oil?

 

Welcome to the club. Funny how the reading on the odometer doesn't match how the truck runs, isn't it. There's no difference in crossing 300k than there is crossing 100k.

 

way to go.

 

I was wondering the same thing, dino or synthetic? Congrats on the 300,000 I've got another 43,000 to get there.
