Well, let me be one to say "YOUCH".  Phil, that would be 'Murrican slang
for "blimey, mate" or something of that ilk (pardon my English).

That works out to $5941 and change over 5.5 years, or $0.37/mile _NOT_
including purchase price of car.

I'd say you earned the badge of courage here...
once again -- youch.

but, I'm sure it's an awesome ride.
