$1587

Apparently that's how much it costs for your 60k mile service on a 1998 Toyota 4Runner. I wanted to faint, but held it together long enough to initial the estimate and hand over the keys. The thing is, they tell you to come in every 7500 miles, and they charge anywhere from $150 to like $600 depending on the milestone you've reached. I'm going to go dig up all the paperwork now, and I'm guessing the total amount I've paid in servicing is almost as much as getting a whole new car. The other scam they have is the dealership no longer provides the loaners -- now they have a Hertz counter on-site -- and even though the daily rental is "free," you still have to pay the insurance and gas.

I feel so used.
