Has anyone on her ever done the math to determine the cost of maintenance to follow the manufacturers recommended maintenance schedule.

Seems like a conveniently forgotten expense like interest on a mortgage.

What is the total cost of ownership in real world applications.

Wife's 2007 Honda Fit has cost about 11K in repairs,tires, oil changes and fluids not including recalls since new in fall of 2006.
It has 300,000 km and we budget $30 a week in fuel

Has depreciated about 13k in 13 years
Seems like new trucks depreciate more than that the first year.
