73,000 miles on the odometer but I swear its off even though I've checked my tire size in the programmer and my speed on all those roadside radar signs.

Maybe I'll take the overall hours and divide by 55 to see if this seems reasonable.

TreeFarm, I thought I had low mileage. You beat me.

Holy crap guys, is this what I can look forward to? I'm curious; what kind of maintenance do you do to them?

44k on my '06 with little quirks, mostly cosmetic, but nothing that's left me on the side of the road.

99k on my '06
I've replaced the tie rod ends, and my A/C is currently crapped out (seems to be a couple of leaks) + the recirc door issue, Tach reading wierd issue,& I'm on my 3rd set of tires. Overall, pretty good (KOW)!
Maybe I expect too much, but the A/C thing is a real 'er for me.

For the AC leak, check the upper line going from the condenser to the compressor at the point where it routes by the serpentine belt. It may not appear that is not touching, or even close, but you may find a groove worn there. It is easily felt, so you could just run your fingers down the hose section and feel for it.

I recommend to all to check it and if you feel even the slightest cut, add some protection to the hose at that point.

Just replaced the line on mine -$165
