Yes! I've already set up an automatic transfer of funds to an unused bank account for maintenance and tires. Not too much cheap about these cars. No more $25 oil changes with bulk oil for me. 9 quarts of synthetic for this bad boy.

Man, I'm already having to do this a LOT. People see the car and just think EXPENSIVE OMFG!!! I nicely explain that the F-150 in their driveway cost FOUR FUCKING TIMES what I paid for my car. I guess that's a perk though, even the older ones look pretty damn sweet.

(BTW, I kind of like the Juke too )
