Well, after all their buddies tell them how nice their ride is the first time they see it, it's over. That person never tells the owner how nice it is again. The owner gets to make the payments for the next "x" years!!!!

You've gone way beyond that. You knew what you were looking for (the absolutes, and the variables) and found it. Now you don't have to be concerned if your buddies like it or not, it suits you. Now, if you drive it with the same diligence until the life is out of it you truly will have a bargain. Enjoy.
