I think the first year of service normally comes with a new car, service includes basic stuff like oil changes. Warranty covers stuff that breaks and that's for 4 years. I think an oil change after the first year is like $100.

Very nice, Black on Black is very nice. I see you need those heated seats in that snow. The 2005's don't have free service from the factory, but some dealers give away the oil change for the first year. You did OK on the price, but you put $1,652 in the dealers pocket, plus the difference between 0.9 and the APR shown on your contract. A maintenance plan for your car for four years is $1,312. If you get a satisfaction survey from DaimlerChrysler you might carry it in and ask the dealer to toss in the plan if you mark all excellent on the survey.

I know if I were a dealer, with the discontinuation of included maintenance, I would be selling people a 4 year maintenance plan up front.
