Investment tip of the year
 

Since the announcement by Transportation Secretary Buttigieg that he would like to impose a Vehicle Mileage Tax, I have decided to invest heavily into all manufacturers of Digital Rollback Odometer Devices. You can thank me later.

In reality, I read that these devices can easily be made at home. If this tax is put into place I can already think of a lot of ways to get around it.

Years ago the used car dealers used to disconnect the speedo cable, and wind the clocks back using an electric hand drill.

How will these devices wipe out memory in onboard GPS and connected services devices. Just got a call from the dealer today to schedule service they knew the exact mileage on my car.

Same thing with your cell phone
 

Since the Pandemic we have not been traveling much. Reading about your car GPS
I finally know why we were getting E Mails and Junk mail from funeral homes and cemetarys. I only use the phone when I travel so it has'nt moved in months. I'm suprised the rescue squad hasn't shown up. Len

If the system/devices were made by man, man has the knowledge to bypass them.

What about women?

I should have said hu-man, or mankind, sorry.

The question is if buying the rollback hardware/software is cost justifiable.

So in your opinion females can do this too?:a040:

What a great tip.
I jus took $3 out from under my mattress.

time will tell

Did that creep you out? It would me. I knew there was a reason to keep my 2005 Scion! :)

If they knew the exact mileage, they probably connected to your car via the internet and read the odometer. I doubt that they use continuous GPS tracking for every mile that you drive.

If you mean hard wired connected somehow that's a negative. My car is less than one year old and not been to the dealer since the day I purchased it. I will tell you this car has enough wiz-bangs it can drive itself. It yells at me to put my hands back onto the steering wheel or will disable features.

So give us a tip. What companies should we invest in that would have the resources to accomplish this feat that must span across hundreds if not thousands of proprietary software programs not to mention wireless transmission patent implications ? I'm in if you can steer me with logic.
