jsoto is on a distinguished road
The X was my personal DD for the initial 5 years. It's the wife's DD since then. It's still my Home Depot Grocery Getter. I don't mind p1ssing money at it when it's needed but there are some unexpected things like the sunroof cassette that sometimes get's under your skin.

I used to keep a fairly detailed repair dossier, documented everything in excel. Sorta given up the ghost on that Eon's ago. For 2017, for sure, if I move forward with the spring maintenance plan, flex brake lines and water pump, just because proactively, and VCG. We're talking $5 bills+ alone on the flex lines Might be chasing a rabbits tail on the oil issue. If the hands are touching the VC, then it's a downhill syndrome on going all in down to the VP...

If I had to do this in spring of 2016, I would have done it with no qualms.
I dunno. Just tallying up the sh1t list, and it's sorta giving me reservations....

14thbmw - I would not trade it. Probably end up giving it to my little bro if he would want it. The value is much much higher than book.
