Currently, I'm averaging $ 732 a year in maintenance cost due to emphasizing preventive maintenance. To further cut on cost, I'll be doing some basic maintenance myself like oil changes and as I get more comfortable expand further to brakes.

The cost is heavily weighted toward preventive care as I plan to keep this car for at least a decade. I expect the cost to trend downward since most future service will be routine oil changes.

2015 – 2021
The previous owner meticulously maintained the vehicle with oil changes every 5k miles, which was one of the reasons I purchased it. I prefer this over Toyota’s recommended 10k interval.
