You should make rounds in the parapalegic ward and tell those lazy cocksuckers to get a job!

You're the one complaining.

Maintenance: primarily windshield wipers and tire rotation.  Tires every 40-50K miles.  I had to replace the 12v batter this year.  Brakes maybe never.  I changed the brake fluid once.   There's no transmission, no differential, no internal combustion engine, no cooling system, no timing belt or any belts of any kind, no a/c compressor, no power steering pump.    

I bought this one used for a very good price, even factoring in an eventual battery replacement the total cost of ownership crushes even our Kia, let alone the full-size pickup.

No alternator.  That always pisses me off when it goes out.  Little warning and not cheap.  I guess no water pump either, eh.  Liking this more and more.  Eat it, OLB.
Why is it so?
