A coworker commutes back and forth from Indiana farm country, about 1hr 15min each way. His Accord has over 420K on the odometer and still runs great. Of course, he’s had to maintain it, but it’s paid for itself for the last eight years. Great cars.

That matches my commute. I was sad to sell it.

My sister and b-i-l owned a Toyota Previa minivan they put 250K+ on without much service. He used to joke that when you met another Previa owner at the gas pump the first question was always how many miles?

It is also a very scriptural car, apparantly much roomier in those days.

Joshua 9:2 - That they gathered themselves together, to fight with Joshua and with Israel, with one accord. -- This must have been a very early model.

Acts 1:14 - These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren. -- A nice family car.

Acts 2:1- And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place. -- Great for carpooling.

Acts 4:24 - And when they heard that, they lifted up their voice to God with one accord, and said, Lord, thou art God, which hast made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all that in them is: -- a very lightweight model, either that or the Jerusalem team had just lost the Stanley Cup.

Acts 5:12 - And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; and they were all with one accord in Solomon's porch. -- Proving Solomon was a southerner.

Acts 7:57 - Then they cried out with a loud voice, and stopped their ears, and ran upon him with one accord, -- Showing us that road rage is not a new emotion.

Acts 12:20 - And Herod was highly displeased with them of Tyre and Sidon: but they came with one accord to him, and, having made Blastus the king's chamberlain their friend, desired peace; because their country was nourished by the king's country. -- A good people's car, Herod was not amused.

Acts 15:25 - It seemed good unto us, being assembled with one accord, to send chosen men unto you with our beloved Barnabas and Paul, -- Great for mission trips.

Acts 19:29 - And the whole city was filled with confusion: and having caught Gaius and Aristarchus, men of Macedonia, Paul's companions in travel, they rushed with one accord into the theatre. -- A tragic accident and I'm not sure the Accord is found later in scripture.
