It'll be a couple hours before I can post pics, gotta have lunch with the fiance first (they'll be from a cell phone, but still decent). I drive about 660 miles a day Mon-Fri and another 360 on Sat.

That's nuts. Have you replaced your tires as well? I'm hoping you just forgot to list it in your maintenance paragraph as I'm sure 200,000 miles on the OEM tires would be a deathwish.

of course :P I went through the oem tires pretty quickly. I was use to driving older cars and have never rotate my tires on any of them in the past. I learned my lesson pretty quickly with this car. After about 10,000 miles the rear tires feathered very badly and I had to get them replaced. Since then, I've gone through a set of Hydroedges (these tires suck) and I'm about ready to replace my Assurance Comfort Treads (absolutely love these tires, they are so quite even at 90 mph, you can barely hear them), these sets were both 80,000 mile tires. I'm going to replace my Comfort Treads with a set of Bridgestone Turanza Serinity in about 10,000-20,000 miles.
