Yeah, I think this one gets the high mileage award...

[ManicMechanic]

 

Or does it?

[mfewtrail]

For Cutties, sure.

 

I posted this before once or twice in mileage related threads.

 

 

That article was from 2002-2003 or so. I'd have to find the magazine it was in to say for sure though.

Editors note: The mileage covered by the vehicle in this story is extraordinary and may not be typical of all Pontiacs.

 

whatever, pontiacs run forevar!! LOL

 

cool finds guys.

[White93z34]

I always thought those clusters displayed ERROR after 200k?

[ManicMechanic]

I did too...But this one evidently didn't...

[boulevard]

Are you sure it's not 35,873.9 miles? Sounds like alot! Must have been a cross country rental at some point. That's alot of miles. I wonder how many hours of driving that would of been?

[ManicMechanic]

I believe the 10ths are in the trip odo...

[White93z34]

Moreover I'm surprised as hell that that terrible cluster didn't break 150,000 miles ago.

Cutlasses don't have tenths on the odometer.

[boulevard]

I don't know. I don't think I ever stepped foot in a w-body cutlass before. Im huge for Luminas.

My base digital gauge didnt have an :"8" imprint for the first number. It could physically only display a 1

[ManicMechanic]

Probably some differences between 1988-91 and 1992-93 clusters.

[GP1138]

If you look closely to the left of the first "3" you can see the outline on the LCD of a "1". Perhaps they added the "9" at the end in Photoshop?

Good point!

[GP1138]

I've never heard of a cluster that could go to a million miles. That's the reason I'd be skeptical.

[Crazy K]

I'm not familar with the basic digi cluster. who wants one? LOL

 

I imagine that really says 35,000.0 miles. we nees someone with that cluster to answer!

[MonteCarloChick]

[GP1138]

Looks like they copied the "3" and added a line to make it a "9".

Incorrect yes they do. Mine has tenths. This is from my 1991 Cutlass Supreme.

Maybe the Dot burned out

Maybe the Dot burned out

Thats what i am thinking happened.

[Brian P]

I'm gonna go out on a limb here

 

The part of the PRNDL indicator looks like the smaller font that was used in '92-93. That cluster was available thru 1993 on the very base models. I get the feeling GM changed that odometer in '92 so it can read over 199999 miles.

That is possible. The one in the original post looks like the dot is just burnt out though.

I bet ya it will illuminate if you switch to trip odo, it will show tenths.

[3.1cutlass]

I doubt it because if you look closely you can see the spacing of mine between the last 2 numbers and the spacing of the last to numbers of the original look the same. I think the dot is just burnt out.
