Is this normal behavior (the driver...not the tach!)?  When my '88 Caravan
went over 123,456,   I stopped in the middle of a county road and shot an
entire roll of film.  Horns blaring, people staring, and my daughter
laughing hysterically at me. 

Am now waiting for it to turn over 200,000 (next year) before I begin to
contemplate the Caravan's demise. 
On the other hand my B is stuck at 56k so there is no 'milestone' to come
for a bit.

Best,
Bill
