Low Maintenace

I bought my 2009 Vibe in mid-Jan 2009. My maintenance expenditures so far (2 years 2 months) have totaled $55.18. The first oil change was done with a $15.95 plus tax offer from the dealer. A tire rotation was part of a 10 for $10 special, $10.68 incl. tax. The next 3 were done at no cost due to a GM Offer. I also replaced the front wiper blades at a cost of $27.48 for RainX Latitudes purchased from Amazon.com. Of course I only have about 10,800 miles on the car - but still not bad. This is one of the reasons I like to buy "new".I gave the buyer my records for my '03 but I think in 6 years my maintenance costs for that '03 over 33,000 miles were only about $350 plus about $250 in repairs. Dealer had a 10 oil change for $119 deal. Bought a battery.
