Hot take: hitting 100,000 miles on my rig felt like a ripoff, not an achievement

I rolled over 100,000 miles last Thursday on I-80 near Cheyenne. Everyone talks about that milestone like it's some big deal for truckers. But honestly, I was just annoyed because my odometer had been stuck for like 3 days because of a glitch, so I didn't even get a clean reading. Plus, I spent more time stuck in traffic near Denver than actually moving during those miles. Anybody else feel like certain numbers are just marketing fluff for stickers and hats?

Feel your pain, traffic miles totally cheapen the milestone.

30k miles on a 200k celebration just feels wrong.
