200,000 Miles

I’ve never had a car reach 200,000 miles before! The Silver Family approach to car ownership is:

1. Change oil regularly, at the cheapest location possible.
2. Avoid all other types of maintenance.
3. Buy a new car upon receiving a four-digit repair estimate.

As I’ve matured into my own person, I’ve thrown off the yolk of my parents’ approach and invested in scheduled maintenance.

Maybe this 2004 Toyota Highlander can reach 300,000 miles?
