I bought the X with 62k on the clock and I now have 86k. My warranty was the best thing I have ever done. It has more than paid for itself and I have 2 years or 14k left.

It is a crap shoot though. You may not experience any of these issues. I would say the absolute safest bet is to put money aside every month into a savings account for repairs, but you have to be the type of person that can stick with it and not dip into that account for anything else.
Mind if I ask what warranty you have since it is not OEM?
