I've maintained this car myself and it's been great even though I beat the ever-livin' $hit out of it the first 4 years I had it. Now that it's my DD, well it has been all along but I have a toy now, I am treating it better cause I have the other one as my 'go fast' car.
If I wasn't looking for a SUV/club cab truck to haul the family/dogs around in, I'd buy another in a heartbeat.
