I've got a 2013 Pilot and 2014 Prius. Very happy with both.

Honda CR-V. Oil changes are like $40 at the dealer.
Tires maybe at 40-50k miles $500 Costco.
And at the 15,30,45 if you do the “b” maintenance it’s like $200. But you can skip most of that and just change oil.
The new pilot I find is way more to maintain in comparison.
Oil and rotate is $70
Services at 20 and 45 are like $230+
Tires at 50k miles are $600 plus.
I’d say at the 50k mark you’ll spend $1000 for upkeep.
Tires, service, alignment, filters, etc

2012 Toyota Tundra 188k and the only thing it’s ever needed were tires, oil changes every 10k and a headlight bulb.

I loved our Subaru Outback! We just turned it in because we need a minivan. *sob*

I have a 2008 Honda Civic with 156,000 miles in it. I can’t say I haven’t put ANY money in it, but it’s been minimal. A new starter a couple years ago (I think $400), new tires a couple times, and new brake pads about 4 times. I’m sure I’m missing a couple things. But I can honestly say I’m a bad driver (no accidents but just a lot of quick braking).
My AC just died (I need a new compressor) but I’m not worrying about it any time soon (summers almost over).
I plan on keeping it forever!

I have a 2007 Rav4 with 150K miles that runs so great that I cannot get rid of it, although I would like to get something new out of lust/envy. I am starting to have to put some money into it for routine maintenance to replace worn out parts like struts, but it is not the fault of the car.
I’m a woman buying a kid mover (lol) after my 2001 Subaru makes it through this (it’s final!) winter. Indeed buying a Highlander.

Going on 12-years with my CR-V and only routine maintenance (and I wasn't even great with that some years). It's still running beautifully.
