"Failure to budget [$2000 per year] mainteance and repair money for TIRES, WHEELS, Brakes, fluid changes..................and to do a prorated reserve for other significant wear and tear items.............leaves many whinning."

Man, you would have to be putting some serious high miles every year to need 2 Gs per year. In four years I've spent $1000 on tires & $500 for maintenance; $1500 total or <$400/year. Maintenance has been done by the book.

i didnt get the original ones there just the replacement tire, no i didnt get the replacement plan as i just bought one tire and they would dispute what tire went bad in the event of a flat.
