My visits to the dealership repair shop pretty much end when my warranty ends. On gassers anyway. There are plenty of honest shops out there who work to earn your business.

I could be wrong but I think that it is only 50,000 miles on the 2005 models.

Ya. I got thinking about that after I typed it. We were having trouble with thieves cutting catalitic converters off trucks with sawzalls to get the platinum money from salvage yards. Thats a whole other topic though.
