After seven years of ownership
I bought this vehicle new in January 2000. For seven years I never had any major problems with this vehicle other than a radiator replacement. In the seventh year everything went on it at once. CV boots, wheel alignment, worn out wheel bearing, engine cylinder gaskets, fuel filter. The vehicle only had 81,000 miles on it when this all happen.
The car that won't die
I've owned this car since it was new in 2000. The only repairs have been a head gasket replacement and a rear wheel bearing. Probably about $1500 in 24 years. Still runs well, although the gas mileage has dropped from 27 mpg to 23. I towed snowmobiles and atv's with it for 20 of those years. Other than gas, oil changes and tires, this car has cost less than $75 a year to maintain. I'm looking at new cars now, but until this one dies I probably won't pull the trigger.
