When we got serious about buying this car to replace our Sequoia (and it is not a good replacement as it is to small, has poor storage, etc but sure is more fun to drive) I asked my wife "So how are we going to pay for this?" Her reply; "Well, I start collecting social security soon". I can't think of a better way to spend part of Her SS check! So FYI: Labor- $149 including 'Multi-Point Inspection Report'. Oil Filter= $24; Seal ring (washer?) $1.46; O-ring= $8.14 !?!?; Now here is the surprise.... Mobil 1 OW-40 10 qts at $6.49ea. That is not a bad price at a dealer. Of course they prob buy it in 55gal for a couple dollars/qt. Has anyone noticed WalMart has M1 in the "5qt Gallon" for about $22? And notice the oil filter, which I think is a cart., comes to about $33.50! That sux. jvm
Rape can be fun.......who knew?
