Talking Is my car indwelt by Satan??

After filling up earlier today (and resetting the trip meter), I had this MPG meter reading upon arriving home. Couldn't resist photographing it and sharing it here!

If weird things start happening in or around the car, I'll post updates ASAP.

Ah, 66.6 mpg. The fuel efficiency of the beast.

Hehehe. One time I pulled in to get gas and landed on 666 miles. Well actually I don't think it was exactly at 666, but that's what it rounded to in the database. It was tank #11 if you care to check it out.

Oh! I thought I'd mention I have had something a little weird happen in my car, though I think it was before the 666 thing... I dropped a spoon down the side of my seat, between the console and the drivers seat, and it completely disappeared. It's either still in there somewhere or there is a black hole in my car. I like to think it was a blcak hole... but if anyone can give me any idea as to where it actually vanished to that would be great.

Don't know how "weird" or "bizarre" this is, but last Sunday I dropped a quarter between the driver's seat and the center armrest, and it landed in a space that's impossible to get to by hand. I may try to vacuum it out.

I have noticed that the space between/under the front seats of my HCH does, in fact, try to eat things. It tried to eat my Blackberry once, when it was dropped under there, and it took some painful hand-twisting and -stretching to get it out, once I could even see that it was there (which took a few days of normal jostling). Then again, I did get stuck with a randomly-generated license plate number that has 666 in it, so maybe you're onto something. I'm currently waiting for my vanity plates to show up so I can get it off my car.

I don't know Leah, It might be good to keep then. Who is going to mess with anyone with those numbers on their plate?

I found that by moving the seat all the way forward or back there is no place I can't get to. If something is between the center console and the seat slider rail I just put someing like a ruler under it to lift it up to where I can get it.

Maybe the 05s are different than the 03s in that area though.

I'd bet they don't issue plates with 666, KKK, or dirty words for obvious reasons
