I agree with you... we should enjoy the time effort and money that we put on this machine.. But am worried is this all or there are some more issues down the road... ??

Through my life I always spend the most on a car at the beginning because being a DIYer you prefer to replace something before it becomes an issue which requires you to work harder and you also know what needs replacing. It seems to longer you own it the cheaper it becomes per year
I can hear the blower motor going but my wife just says, "I turn the radio up and it doesn't bother me". Case in point
If you sell a used car after less than 2 years you do yourself am injustice in my opinion because you have just spent all this money so somebody else can enjoy it. "There's always something" because its a machine and machines need constant maintenance, and these x's are like super models, they look and feel good but are high maintenance
