The engine has one moving part and doesn’t need re-lubrication every year. Makes shit a lot simpler.

2 recalls, no cost to me. Brakes were serviced during that time free of charge. All they did was clean and check them. Also rotated tires for free.

My biggest expense I would assume will be my tires. It does weigh like 5400 lbs

Yes, tires are the only consumable that is worse. Especially since it's hard to turn off the lizard brain and /not/ use the extra torque. Brakes basically rust off them with disuse and then there's wiper fluid. They really should have old-school drum brakes.
