Thanks for looking.

The tricky part is estimating the various costs with any accuracy. You might need to spend $400 on tires, but how often do you need new tires? If it's once every 4 years, then you would divide $400 by 4 years and increase the maintenance category by $100.

I don't know if it's easier to estimate maintenance and repairs as a yearly cost, or to estimate it for the duration of ownership and just extrapolate out the yearly cost from that. What do you think?
