@dagosa, I agree that consistent maintenance by the book does reduce repair costs dramatically, and that is in part why I paid so little for repairs. I am not interested in resale since I keep my cars so long. We often donate our cars when we are through with them. They charity is always surprised when they find they can drive it away.
