5.5 year ownership experience
bought my 2015 es350 on january 2019 as a cpo with 37k miles. god bless the 0.9% apr offered at the time.
during 5.5 years and 50k miles (84k currently), this is what i spent:
oil changes at toyota dealer @ $80 each
tires @ 60k miles = $800 (pirelli)
transmission fluid @ 80k miles= $250
battery = $200
misc (cabin filter, air filter, wiper blade inserts) = about $150 give or take
that's it. nothing ever broke on the car. check engine light never came on.
every other car i ever drove had at least one check engine light during ownership (nissan, infiniti, lincoln, mercedes, bmw, kia).
is it the best car i ever drove??? not even close, it would be dead last in driving enjoyment. but it was the easiest on my wallet.
