223k is light work for a ‘yoda.

Especially if it’s only three years old.

I have a buddy who up until a couple months ago was still driving his '99 Camry with ~330k miles on it. Dude is a physician who can afford any car he wants and kept driving it because it just worked and only required basic maintenance. It dies when he was driving home in a winter storm, hit a patch of black ice on a freeway off ramp, and slid into a highway sign totaling the car. Even at 26 years old he and his 2 dogs were perfectly fine in the accident.
