Andy, you're obviously not OCD. Because if that were mine I'd have to back out down the street a 1/2 mile then drive back into my garage so it read 100,000 or Id never be able to sleep at night. :crazy: If I didn't, I'd forget in the morning and get 3 miles down the street and see that it's now 100,003. 🤦‍♂️

I seriously thought about it lol. I put a dollar bill that was in my console in front of the gauges as a reminder to pay attention to the odometer in the morning. If not I would definitely forget lol. If I don’t post a picture of the 100k Tomorrow you will definitely know I dropped the ball lol.

Spark plugs, oil change, rotate tires, replace windshield wipers, top off washer fluid, replace or fix the leather boot that covers the parking brake. Just general maintenance. I really need to deep clean the interior too… Damn dogs make a mess every time we take them anywhere lol

Touch up the peeling clear coat on my ARB front bar (Queensland sun)
Replace the gas struts on my ARB canopy (will only hold the glass up when the weather is hot) or I could just leave it it, won't be cold again for 6 months.
Buy and replace the cracked / crumbling door rubbers x 4
Buy and replace the front roof console (sun glass door is broken and won't stay up anymore)
Replace the transfer case front prop shaft seal that weeps sometimes and then stops again.
Wash and polish - well I did wash it, but didn't have time to polish it as well last weekend
Re-tune my favourite radio presents (lost them when I came back from being away for 2 months and found my truck had put itself to sleep)
Take the load of cardboard which is sitting in the back for weeks to the dump.

Annoying isn't it, like my transfer case seal that leaks a while and then stops. Why can't Ford make things that break consistently, oh wait, 10R80.
