    I present the 400,000 mile PSOM/Odometer

    So... everyone said it couldn't be done. But, the van was about to roll over to 400,000 miles and I didn't want to roll back from 399,999 back to 300,000 and be a lame-o. So I figured out a way to get it to show 4xx,***. It's really just a cheat, but took a little doing and looks pretty...
