A saab? What is he, gay?
Actually, he was an obsessive compulsive pothead and it was all miles that were used to run to the local 7-11, and then back home, and then back to the store, and then back home...
The Kims were driving a Subaru Outback wagon AWD.
"regimin"?......hahaha! (Stones/glass houses etc.)

My 99 made it to 240K then a casting defect rotted through. I fixed it, sold it and within six weeks the car was hit hard.

OK, I can't spell either. But at least I misspelled the correct word.
I have need of a good van. I almost bought a Chev Astro with 200,000 miles on it. A 1999. It sold at auction for $1,800. I thought that was too much money for that many miles. But I might've been wrong.
Maybe he turned the odometer forward.
Gag. The spell checker passed it. It passes wrong words all the thyme.
Here ya go!
The side rear windows that I saw in overhead video were either a Subaru Impreza WRX wagon or a SAAB 9-2 wagon (same car, slightly different trim).
The guy sure did a lot of driving. That's over 50,000 miles per year. You got to wonder if NYC taxis put on those kind of miles.
I've got 308,000 miles on my 1999 Chevy Lumina. It runs pretty good, even the AC works.
Just whom did his wife divorce? wouldn't it be proper to just say "after his divorce".
However, this does point out one of the perils of divorce; it may be many years before you can afford a new car.
Midlife Crisis
When I was married 25 years, I took a look at my wife one day and said, "Honey, 25 years ago, we had a cheap apartment, a cheap car, slept on a sofa bed and watched a 10 inch black and white TV, but I got to sleep every night with a hot 25 year old blonde.
Now, we have a nice house, nice car, big bed and plasma screen TV, but I'm sleeping with a 50 year old woman. It seems to me that you are not holding up your side of things."
My wife is a very reasonable woman. She told me to go out and find a hot 25 year old blonde, and she would make sure that I would once again be living in a cheap apartment, driving a cheap car, and sleeping on a sofa bed.
Has he ever changed his underwear?
Once cars began to be assembled by robots instead of hourly workers, I think it was inevitable that we'd see a lot more million-mile cars.
Last month I fulfilled my promise. Yes, I bought her that car; a 1981 Cadillac.
My Mom *loved* Dodge Omnis, in spite of how totally uncool they are and the fact that the one we had didn't shift properly most of the time.
When I was looking for my first real car (this was only seven or eight years ago), she spotted one at a used car lot while we were driving around. She was trying to talk me into at least trying it when her skirt brushed the front bumper and the bumper fell off.
I didn't buy it. ;-)
They were super reliable. We had quite a few at 400-700,000 miles and most in the 200-400,000 range. and only 3-5 years old. We moved up to the bigger Chevy "Express" vans and blew out transmissions left and right. We are talking a fleet of around 100 vans.
