60,000 Mile Servicing

I took my Toyota Camry to the local Carmax dealership yesterday. It was time to get its 60,000 mile servicing done. I got some nasty shocks when I was told that the strut assemblies and drive belts needed to be replaced. All totalled, the bill came to $1,336! Serious ouch!!!!! Hopefully, this will be the last big auto bill for a while. I haven't forgotten what happened with a 1991 Plymouth Laser I owned. Once the warranty went out on that car, every time I went to the dealership, they found another thing wrong with it. As I remember, it was costing me an average of $200 a month in repairs. If that starts happening with the Camry, I'm going to be trading it in quick.
