Quality Short 👌
Some extra wording could be added. Just rotate the tires with every oil change. Clean your wiper blades with a non solvent solution every few months to make them last longer. Rubber can go 2-3 years and good silicone can go for 2x longer. Cabin and engine air filters should be changed simultaneously. Miles varies on the pollution in your area. I get 40k where I am since it’s not very polluted. Waxing, depends on how much of the elements it’s exposed to, you can get upwards of 6 months on the same wax. Oil, mileage varies on blend. Can get 3k on conventional and upwards of 9k on some synthetics. Googling or oil cap can also provide oil weight. Also replace engine oil and filter in tandem. Cvt oil every 30-45k and auto/man every 50-70k. Depends on how hard it’s driven. Spark plugs now a days lasts well over 80k. Just change em every 80-100 or when fuel economy drops or a misfire lights the check engine. Do it when engine is cold, don’t overtighten. Just snug it up and give it an extra quarter inch turn. Tread them by hand before using ratchet, so you don’t strip the threads. Tire pressure should be what the door stickers says. Don’t pump it Willy nilly, tracks need far more than 40 psi in some cases. Adjust and check tire psi a few times per year. +- 10 degrees = +- 1psi. And get an alignment if tire wear is uneven. Also never run your gas gauge to empty, always fill it up around 1/4 from empty.
Love it bro!!! Keep it up
