Too many comedians out of work, for you to try to get in the business...

You mean the odometer? It has 5 and when it hits 99999 it goes back to 00000...

I think that's what you're asking. Also that's why half these cars show odometer tampering on carfax.

Pretty cool for you to document that.
A tip of my black Gorin Pork Pie hat to you sir.

Why does the trip meter show mileage but the odometer doesn't? is it broke? did somebody roll it back?

That's because you have a canadian car. Mine also has the km scale. You can do like I did and buy an adapter which will enable you to read mph off the kmh scale…and the odometer will read in mph .

GM never did believe these cars would have lasted more than 99,000 miles. Didn't bother adding the extra digit. Just look at the money it saved in eliminating the digit.

GM thinks different nowadays.

Yep. Someone asked how many digits? I said 5.. Guess I was right. Been a while since I've had a TR. [Like 15 yrs].

it was common to have 100,000 mile odometers back in the day, since it was almost unheard of for cars to last longer than that and they wanted to encourage people to trade them in for new ones before the odometer rolled over... the feds started mandating million mile odometers in the late 80's or early 90's sometime, so that's what all the new cars have..
