Why it exists

two_of_a_kind Two houses with their own policies, Wi-Fi, codes, furnace filters, trash days and bills, so "the house" is ambiguous (and Camille's apartment is a third property). Three cars.

not_the_users_car The Buick is Lorraine's to drive and is still titled and insured in the name of the late Walter E. Pruitt, which reads like Walt's own name. The Corolla is titled to Walt but is Camille's. "My car" is the F-150.

Story, 2014-05-23: Walter Sr. buys the Buick LaCrosse new. It is the car Lorraine still drives, and it is still in his name.
