Let's start over......
I need to do mine! I'm around 5500 miles on this oil change. Checked it last week and it was a quart low, put a quart in and kept going.
Getting ready to get some tires for it soon. That will be the most expensive thing i have done to it since i have owned it. So far I've spent 60 on rotors and pads, 18 on Plugs, 140ish for front hubs, and 5 for the little rubber grommet that fell out and couldn't change gears. I'm beginning to wonder if its actually a Chevrolet with the low cost of ownership

I'm was looking at the tires on mine today as well -- thinking I can get through the summer with the ones I have and then I will pop for new ones. I put a new set on when I bought the car at 31,000 miles and am sitting at just a shade under 70,000 miles right now. I could probably get a bit more out of the set I have, but for what they cost I'd rather replace them and tad early and keep good rubber on it!
Back home from a week in Nashville. Ended up getting a set of 20's from a 2016 lariat sport for cheap today. Rest of the weekend (Monday is a holiday up here) will be spent on the truck getting some small projects done.
Some moron decided to schedule an inspection in Dallas for 9:00 on a Monday morning. As such, I'll be spending my Sunday afternoon/early evening traveling for business.......
Oh well, another day, another 250-mile road trip in the Cavalier at 54-cents-per-mile.....

Just drove by a accident between a Honda Accord and a super duty. Hondas rear bumper was to the rear doors and the Ford had a pushed in valence bent grill guard. Maybe 600 dollars of damage
I'll keep the 17" Raptor wheels I have and run them in the winter again. Probably end up putting Toyo AT II's on them at some point.
Time to look for a new truck. By 2018 when the diesel hits i bet the 5.0 will be gone. If you dont want a new truck then buy a cavalier like the cool kids do and save all the miles you can on the truck
