I'm going to try to arrange the display for: 123,456 miles, 789 trip odometer and 10ºF. I might get impatient and try to do it at 123,456 km (76,212mi). 50,473 mi now.
Not sure where you are, or when you think you'll get to that milage, but 10ºC may be easier.

I'm in west central Wisconsin. 10ºF is no problem! If I try to do it in metric, I would wait until spring or fall; 10ºC= 50ºF. 123,456km (76,212mi) would probably happen about this time next year, and 10ºC/50ºF is about the average high here in thru mid-October.

Remind me to reset the trip odo to zero at 122,667km so I end up at 789km.
If I miss it, I could try for 234,567km on the main odo and 890 on the trip odo, and 1ºC on the temp. Then 345,678...

Drove down to Southern Indiana to deer camp and one of my buddies and I cleared trails and made some shooting lanes...but the 1st thing.i had to do within 5 minutes was pull his 4x4 Silverado out of a hole LOL, in defense of him, it had washed out in spring rains along a creek crossing and it was in high weeds, he didn't expect it so he didn't look first. I didn't have the heart to tell him that's the 3rd chevy of some sort I've pulled out. I drove up.the logging trail 50 yards or so at a time , cleared downed limbs and pruned trees and those evil briar patches then moved another 50 to 100 yds and did some more. Got alot accomplished in 4 hours. Also turned my stand in a better direction.

And my Ranger wasn't sitting on flat ground, that hill goes up all the way. My pacemaker was happy, I didn't have to climb it. But I still managed to get 1.81 miles of walking I

But the improvements have begun, the velossatech is on the way, wasn't impressed with the paper filter installing the AFE so going to drop a quality filter into the box also

Front windows tinted and clear bra on the hood and fender tips yesterday

Lots planned, have to work the OT to pay for it. I'm eyeing a Ford Performance Bumper for the front and an RSI cap for the back HARD ?

today the 4g and i got an invite to make a donation to the city and share our community spirit...
expired registration sticker. the cop was nice. i didnt complain as it was expired more than a year lol. so when he asked if knew why i was pulled over i said i sure do... :giggle: normally i get things done on time but the past two years have been hectic so i missed the window of getting the sticker in the mail, so it requires a court house visit. court house is only open when im at work and i dont miss work.

Well, now you have a work pass note. (assuming there is a court date on it)

Bummer Mark - if you don’t work, you don’t eat.

The Province of Ontario recently did away with the annual registration fee and the stickers. Owners still have to ”renew” their registration online every year, but at no cost. We don’t get a new card, a sticker for our existing cards, or a licence plate sticker mailed to us anymore. LEOs would know if we’re current or not when they run our plate.

I’m sure police in neighbouring provinces understand all this but if I was driving in the U.S., I wonder if the old expired 2022 sticker on my plate would cause a bit of a delay if I was ever pulled over. ?

10-4. Seemingly trivial stuff like an expired plate have resulted in bigger busts. A plate that appears to be out of date could indicate a careless approach to life, like driving w/revoked license, drugs/paraphinalia in the car, illegal weapons, etc." Out of date" Ontario plates south of the boarder?
That might cause some delay.

That’s what I was thinking Chris. Thanks.

Illegal weapons? On a Canadian? Makes no sense Chris - how could one of us even hold a weapon without having to put down one of our beers? :wink:
