If there's one car that I had to be stuck in for that length of time, it would be a S65. At least it must have been a comfy 56k miles.

It looks like there's a permanent dent in the center console arm rest, right where the driver's elbow/arm would be....

140 miles a day, where was this dude driving to/from? Must have lived 50 or more miles from work along with some road trips.

Edit: Could have been driving from outskirts of Ft. Worth into Dallas every day and back, that would certainly put nearly 100 miles a day or so. Combine with a bunch of weekend trips to Houston and/or Austin.
