Odometer == 1000 0000 0000 0000 (base 2)

This evening, a major milestone was reached in the life of my Ford Taurus:

Car Odometer at 65536

Our odometer just rolled over to 216 = 65536 miles. Rolling over to 1000 0000 0000 0000 (base 2) miles is much more exciting than reaching a mere 100,000 (base 10) miles.
