Hmmmm….so I talked to him about how well the car ran and confirmed that he thought it was a great car…..and them I told him that when I sold it almost 10 years ago it had over 100k miles on it. He was bummed out about it so I reminded him that he was just convincing me how great the car is and I told him that nothing was any different – just go out and enjoy it!
Amazing how emotionally attached one can get to that favorable mileage number.
