I have never once so much as changed a sparkplug or had any repair other than normal maintenance. I always wait at least 7500 miles between oil changes and I do my normal 30,000 mile services every 60,000 miles (whether it needs it or not).
I'd probably still be driving my old Toyota, but they came out with the 4 door model and I really needed the extra doors.
Obama can have his WOT, but my next truck is going to be another Toyota, if I ever get tired of the one I have.
