She said the owners should call her when it hit 999,999, and Toyota would pick up the vehicle with a flatbed, wherever it was. And this they did, with 999,999 showing on the odometer. The business was given a new vehicle to replace the old, and the old is supposedly now in the Toyota museum in Long Beach. That's what I read. Anybody near Long Beach who wants to check that out? And all I've got is 374,000 on the 'Teg. No free Honda for me. :^( -- Tegger |
