I fix everything on my cars, trucks, even the house.
My take on it........buy a car that won't need any work besides oil + filters.
I've got 2 Toyotas (03 Tacoma with 155K on it and an 01 Highlander w/ 160K) that have never been to the dealers for anything. The Highlander has been the most needy of the two.
Done all the wheel bearings on it, patched the exhaust, fixed the climate control system and few other odds and ends.
If something major goes wrong i'll be forced to seek a skilled (read well equipped) shop.
Yeah they're both boring vehicles but they have served us well. I've got the Porsche if i want to have fun.
