Another of a million contributors to health care costs. Medical couriering is pretty common. Guy talked about how he delivers all kinds of supplies that people need right away. People can't wait for other delivery methods.

This civic will hit 1 million miles and soon on the headlines news all over for Honda engine.
My prelude just passed 350k and the vtec engine sound like brand new. Just won't match this civic mileage

Damn that's a lot of driving indeed. "IT'S OVER 9000!!!"
With that said, will it reach a point where the car's trip meter will run out of digits to display? (i.e. 99999999) xD
P.S.
On a serious note:
Mad props to that fellow.
Being that his profession/line of work is in the medical/health field, it's great to know that his car and its engine are working when it's needed even after long distance driving.

But the rest of the car is very reliable, specifically the chassis, because of its body on frame, simple construction, and rwd drivetrain with solid rear axle.
That being said, riding in a high mileage crown vic (or its derivative Town Car/Grand Marquis) is about as pleasant as using public bathroom. It stinks, leaks, rattles, squeaks and squeals.

Crown Vic engine isn't reliable at all. They burn oil from the start, and by the time they hit 60k they leak like pigs and consume as much oil as they consume gas.

I've been saying that it's time that automakers start putting in 7 figure odometers as it is becoming more common to pass 1M miles or kilometers. Even though the vast majority of cars don't make it there, what's the big deal making space for another digit?

That motor in the Crown Vic chassis has proven to be tough as nails. Also very thirsty for no more power than it puts out(its only like 230hp for your police versions). If the motors were pieces of junk once they got some miles on them, taxi companies wouldn't buy them when the police were through with them.
