My thought exactly

I got a pic at 100,000 miles, but I didn't think to get one at 50,000

Got dust? Check out the steering wheel column.

Just messing, although probably being a daily driver it's hard to keep clean all the time. The dust on mine when it was a DD was pretty thick, usually clogged up whatever I'm wiping it down with, and I could just pick it off the column with my fingers before it hit the floor.
