New vehicle confusion...

Is it the same for the Toyota? How much have you spent on
"scheduled maintenance"?
Good question but I'm not sure. Probably less than $600 during the
warranty period but that's a guess. The dealer always tried to "up
sell" required items but the actual wording in the owners guide was
not that onerous.
After the warranty on the Camry was up it was basically just oil
changes, tires, etc. The only exception to that was struts at about
70K thanks to really bad NYC/NJ roads, the aforementioned radiator at
about 120K miles, and preventive replacement of the water pump, timing
chain and spark plugs at 100K miles.
My wife's Honda Accord is now well over 100K miles and has never even
needed new struts. We did do PM of the water pump and timing chain
at 100K.
