like the previous poster said, it seems to come in waves.

i have an '01, purchased in the spring of 2009. in 6.5 years i have spent (including tires, the GAHH top and oil changes) close to around $10k for 60k miles. though it has only been a DD for the past couple of years. prior to that it was only used for long road trips.

some years it was only oil changes, some years i could see smoke coming from the credit card from getting swiped so many times.
