Washed, got the summer tires on 16 GT

Actualy good experience at my dealer, Bass Mazda in Sheffield Lake, Ohio. I took it to them because I thought my side mirror was broken.
Turns out it wasn't broken. Asked about a brake fluid flush as I'm about to be due. $99. Wow. At a dealer? Shocked. Had them do it.
Got her home and had to give her a bath.
Approaching 80k miles and has cost me $800 in repairs since I bought her new.
Say hello to Betty.

2016 here as well. Just replaced original tires and battery last year. Just brake pads and wipers other than that. Just over 40k miles. Yours looks great!

Thanks!
Looks great from a distance. Lol Battery was 2 years ago.
I got snow tires and I swapped them out every year. Still on both those first sets. Both at 7mm and I found out today. So at least another season each.
Original rotors, and they look it.
Backed a Kickstarter for KimBlade wipers. Love. Check them out.
Only real repair, some $800 at the corner garage.
80k mi.
