Pull the pineapple out of your skull.

"the rest of us expect a great product regardless of what it costs.."

I do not expect my Ford to cost as much as a BMW.
You should not either.
Yet YOU would hold a $5K to $10K used car to some lofty standards you expect of a $15K to $30K used car "regardless of what it costs." And YOU think that's fair.

But on top of that, an OVERPRICED BMW still costs BUCKETS-O-CASH to maintain. YOU overlook that too.

So here YOU are, complaining about the cost of maintaining a car that COSTS LESS to keep up than the one you're comparing it to?

Good luck finding a BMW which is cheap to maintain, cheap to repair, cheap for parts, cheap for service, cheap to mod. Riiiight.

BTW, the car I traded in to get my CSVT was a Toyota. When I bought my CSVT, Toyota had NOTHING similar to what I was looking for. Neither did VW. Neither did BMW. Neither did Honda. Neither did Nissan. Neither did Subaru. Neither did Saab. Need I go on? To YOU, that means I wore blinders. You must enjoy being an ass, as YOU seem to insist on it.

You love your csvt so much, yet YOU are on this crusade, YOU bought the warranty, YOU picked the stealership to go to, YOU got shafted by a stealership, YOU didn't do your homework to keep from getting ripped off, YOU have a LACK of perspective... Yep, that YOU have ALL these issues is all FORD'S fault, Mr. Blinders-on.

Now tell us how fair and rational you're being about all this, and we'll believe you. <--- Look! There's MORE HUMOR!!
