Just remember he's driving like 250 miles a day to get those numbers. My Yaris will not see 100k in 16 years at the rate the miles are going on. I dont expect things to hold up as well.

Try over 360 miles per day, 6 days a week (I believe he said he works Saturdays).

You're right though, don't expect the same durability results if it takes you 20 years to go 400K. Time is just as much a killer of cars as mileage is.

That's true ... I didn't think about that.

Either way, it's still impressive; if for nothing else just the knowledge that we can almost literally keep the car driving 24/7 and it will just keep going and going. haha
