A great day just got better!
Not sure what type of car Mickey drives, but I tend to keep cars for 9 years and about 140k miles. Or at least that's how the last two have worked out. They were all BMWs, so perhaps that helped me, as they tend to hold up pretty well over time.

Bought a BMW 3 series in 1995 and sold it in 2004 with 145k miles.

Bought a BMW 5 series in 2004 and sold it in 2013 with 140k miles.

Bought a BMW 7 series in 2013, and I'm currently driving it. It has about 75k on it. Not planning to get rid of it anytime soon, and it still runs very well.
