Not to many of you have had the chance to roll their odometer on their cars like this.

This took place Sunday afternoon driving up to Ft. Worth.

Wow, that's a lot of miles. Congrats...I think.

My 2009 doesn't have 9,000 yet.

I wanted to get some good laughs since I had all the crap go on with my car, plus its special since I did roll my car over 100,000 miles. I guess I left off that last part. Great cat pictures

Wow thats a few more miles than me. Whats up with the glove box door not staying shut? Make a great car and go cheap on a little latch.

There is a technique to closing it...(the wife still does not understand this)

close it from the center of the box, not the passenger or driver side, right in the middle.

That's it. Give it a try.

I'll do that in the morning. I had been closing it from sitting in the drivers seat and with my hand below the latch.

Thanks Todd

Yeah, always have closed it by using one hand on the middle of the box, never had a problem with having it latch first time.

Control arms however.... :)

I feel your pain Wood.

I tried that trick with the glove box door and IT WORKED. :)

Especially since we bought the car with 35XXX miles on it in february. Now that my Z28 runs good again I'll be driving it more so the mileage will stay down on the G8 hopefully. Have you had any issues other that glovebox one?

I'm within 10miles of going over myself. Should be rolling over tonight. And mine's a 2009 bought in Sept 2008.
