1 million miles and he decides to move on

[UteStar]

A salesman has finally decided to give up his 1989 Saab. He logged just over 1 million miles on it (it was verified by Saab). Pretty cool story but also a little sad and depressing when you think of how much of his past 17 years must have been wasted away driving that car. (about 58,000 miles a year average).

LOL, reminds me of the Married With Children episode where Al's Dodge went over 1 million miles.

Survived 8 deer collisions and frame rusting from road salt, yeah, that's Wisconsin.
Long time ago, but I knew a guy who owned a Saab, he had it in the shop quite a bit. I would say he logged closer to a million shop hours than a million miles.
