Steve, Fox,
It's not about that. It's about the time I need to maintain/repair. My reason was to "keep it going". On the Lexus, I never have to do anything beside gas and oil. And it's, quiet, smooth, AC is perfect... and all the features we (crazy car heads) "never" need.
Actually, it's more like venting out to me. Not a decision to make, since I knew my decision
Thanks for listening and supporting.
