Welcome to the tragedy-of-the-month club! In one nine-month period, Mark Millhone¿s youngest son nearly dies from birth complications, his oldest son is injured in a household accident, his father is diagnosed with prostate cancer, and his mother has a heart attack and passes away. In the aftermath of this year-from-hell, his marriage also begins to fray.
He deals with this as only a ¿real man¿ could: he logs on to eBay and bids on his dream car. The like-new BMW becomes more than a car for Millhone¿it¿s almost a prayer to the patron saint of used cars and second chances to make his family like new again. Joined by his estranged dad, he embarks on a dysfunctional family road trip to pick up the car¿a comedy of errors that gives Millhone life-affirming perspectives on how to navigate the road of life¿s bumpy patches.
