ONLY failed part on the truck to date has been a $15 thermostat. NO failed parts to date on the corolla. expenses for all other parts replacements were only for NORMAL WEAR and TEAR items, and few at that (mostly just tires, light bulbs, and wiper blades). my millionaire brother has only owned toyotas, since "graduating" from nissans. just one example of prospering by MINIMIZING transport costs. interesting that 4 of the 10 are built by toyota (including the Vibe, a Matrix clone).

I wonder what the cost of owning one is, since I drive one and it seems to be on par with the Toyota Corolla? I’m surprised the Honda Civic did not make the list.
