Preventive Maintenance
For the first time in my life, I have performed preventive maintenance on a car (aside from routine stuff like oil etc). I replaced the main fuel and bypass line on my Carrera this afternoon, and they weren't even leaking. Now my wife can drive it without me worrying about her being incinerated.

Good job.
Hmmmm... I think I have spent about $6000 in the last 24 months on preventative maintenance.... and about $800 in break-down repairs! I'd like the think the preventative money is saving me at least 2:1 in future expensive repairs.
