Here is the first printing, in all its PDF glory.
I was actually a dork and read it (Sam laughed at me on Twitter for announcing I was reading it cover to cover, so y'all can go ahead and laugh at me, too).
Here were my highlights:
Page 333: We only have to change the oil every 10,000 miles (!!!!) Is that common for new cars? I'm having trouble believing that.
Page 295: There's a whole complicated ritual you have to go through after you change the battery. God knows if I'll remember to do this in 5 years.
Page 340: It's got a timing belt (boo!) but it doesn't have to be changed until 150,000 miles (yay!).
Page 358: The lime-green Fiestas will molt in 3 years and settle into their mature brown color.
Also I noticed the logs are super-boring. Is there a web-based or smart-phone APP that's popular for tracking maintenance?
