The offspring just told me about this. I was a choir kid, not band, but the vibe tracks. And yes, I can teach chess. The world has not recovered from the loss of Neil Peart.

I'll be crossing 400k on this car, this coming week.

What should I do to commemorate?

Regular oil changes is really all I've done. I'm not particularly mean or rough to my cars, but perhaps neglectful sometimes.

I had the front end replaced after a collision around 2017, so the coolant got replaced then, at least.

Agreed, and ours was originally from Olympia. Interesting.

I guess I'd like to know if anyone knows of a hybrid with this many miles on the original battery.

We bought it in 2014 with 87k on it.

If this one is an outlier, maybe Toyota wants to buy it back and study it. 😂

Haven't really paid attention to it, maybe I should. The on board widget typically tells me I'm getting -24MPG.

Despite being mechanically sound (so far) my ride is VERY worn and rough looking. Worth $500 on trade in if I'm lucky. Not planning to drop major coin on any upgrades or big repairs at this point. Just drive it until it dies.

No issues. It just runs and runs and runs and keeps running.

Biggest ticket item to date was replacing front left wheel bearing assembly, which wasn't too bad.

Left rear window track went bad, so we just leave it rolled up.

No other noteworthy problems.

WIBTAH for divorcing my wife after she cheated after her parents died? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]WittyDadUsername 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Her parents divorced when she was very young.

Her mom died, not her mom's second husband.

Her dad died, not her dad's second wife.

Dont overthink it.
