55. I only started doing the registration "online" in 2023

Wed Apr 30, 2025, 10:44 AM

Apr 30

so prior to that, I mailed it in and didn't remember how/if it was itemized as clearly as it is now.

The one thing that does happen, which is possible for how they can collect mileage data, is that whenever I get my car inspected (which is obviously a requirement in the state), my service folks (a dealer) get the mileage. They have generally used that to estimate "when to come back for service" (and will stick some number of miles on a sticker that they stick in the upper left corner of my car windshield). But if inspection facilities (dealers, service centers, etc) DO collect and keep that info, then that could be handed over to the state.

I know when I bring mine in, they laugh because as of today, I have had my car for 11 years (I think 4/30 was the actual date when I took delivery back in 2014), and as of last week when I got it inspected, it still has less than 19,000 miles on it.
