I had to get this picture since I'll only see it once.  It happened on my drive this evening. 8)

If you keep driving it long enough, you'll see it again!

Excellent point Cees, if Brad drives his car like I do he will see it again ... I put 1,274 Miles on mine over the last weekend most of it in his fine state (PA) of the Lberty Bell. ;)

Good timing Brad to take that picture. Bet you were not driving on the Interstate when it turned to all sixes.

I was on route 422 near Kittanning Pa.  I pulled over to take the picture.  I drive the car only on nice days.  I have put over 10K miles on it.  (a few thousand miles a year) At that rate of mileage I likely will not see all sixes again.

Whats wrong with all sevens. Bit of a luckier number. My next odometer milestone. If you do some math and reset your trip meter at the right time you could have it join the party!
