Neat! What year is your car?
Well, not the FIRST time...
Hrm... I'm assuming you bought it used within the last 11,112 miles, then? Since all the numbers (assuming more than one number) were the same at 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88, 99, 111, 222, 333, 444, 555, 666, 777, 888, 999, 1111, 2222, 3333, 4444, 5555, 6666, 7777, 8888, 9999, 11111, 22222, 33333, 44444, 55555, 66666, 77777, 88888, and 99999 miles as well.

Re: Well, not the FIRST time...
In those, there were blanks instead of numerals.
But those are not six in a row - and "all" includes the 100,000 digit, too.ehurtley said:Hrm... I'm assuming you bought it used within the last 11,112 miles, then?

Also, Pikachu is a 2001 Prius. His five year anniversary is coming up in less than a month.
And he had 3 miles when I bought him, so I can't be ABSOLUTELY sure of my claim above, but all trends point to that being the case.
It's a 1988 that I drove off the lot on April 19, 1988 with 6 miles on the odometer. Yes, I have slowed down it's use over the past 3 three years when I bought a 2002 Toyota Tacoma and now my 2005 Prius. The air conditioner in "Ol' Reliable" no longer works and not much heat is put out when the temp is under 32F, but it still has it's utility. BTW, the old truck is only on its 3rd set of tires.
Only a true Prius-head would call a steering-column-mounted shifter 'very strange'... (Or someone who is used only to modern manual or old auto shifters.)jeromep said:
Heck, the ones I find 'very strange' are the MANUAL shifters that are on the steering column.
Well, actually the lever is on the dash next to the steering column. I must confess I thought it a bit strange at first, but I've definitely grown used to it. It's very easy to grasp with a simple, natural motion to control it.ehurtley said:
The 97-03 shift selector is very strange because it points upward and has a button on it. So it is kind of like a graft between a floor shifter (with button) and a column shift, but pointed in the wrong direction. and it isn't really a column shift, but a dash shift because it doesn't intersect with the column, but with the dash. If I had one of that vintage, I would get used to it.
I like column automatics much more than I like floor shift automatics, so the dash mount of the 03 or the dash mount joystick of the current model meets my needs. I've never liked floor consoles anyway.
