A learning experience is one of those things that says, "You know that thing you just did? Don't do that."

Hey, congrats! I've never owned a car with that many miles.
The wife's 99 T5 has only 110K on it, and my 98 GLT just turned over 150.
I'm hoping they'll both last that long, but the '99 has a failing ETM that acts up when it wants to, and the '98 is getting finicky about something lately.
