Default Paid off my truck today!

I purchased my 2008 from a local Honda dealer back in December of 2014. I just sent in my final payment today. I am very glad that this truck has been as reliable as it has been. Bought it with 60k, it now has 161k. The only actual "failures" that this truck has had is a catalytic converter, 3 window regulators, ball joints, and sunroof rails/motor. I have maintained it religiously with oil and filter at 5k intervals. Here is a picture from the first week that I had the truck to now. Not much has changed, but I like it that way.

Nice. I paid my 2006 off in 2011 and haven't had a payment in 8 years. If your truck is running strong hopefully you will get years of payment free driving out of it. The only thing I've done beyond normal maintenance is a stuck mode door repair, replaces IWE's, and door ajar switch. Mine has about 190k.

Actually dropping the truck off in a few weeks for a full detail.

Actually, you reminded me that I DID have a blend door actuator failure. Dorman units were junk. I went through 3 of them before I just got another MotorCraft. The door ajar switch on the passenger door also went out. But these were so easy to fix that I honestly forgot about them!
