I'm with you. These should last forever. I don't offroad, tow, jack ass
around. I've had the front wheel bearings, rear wheel bearings, rear
u-joint, now the rear diff. bearings replaced. One more thing goes bad and
this POS is for sale!

The way it's going I'll be taking bids next month! LOL!

Let's see:
Front Wheel Bearings: $500 (don't remember exact amount, but covered by
warranty)
Rear Wheel Bearings: $250 (don't remember exact amount, but covered by
warranty)
Rear U-Joint: $157
Rear Diff. Bearings: $573

Total $1480

Warranties (kia's 10/100,000 and everyone else stepping up their own
warranties to compete).  Don't most of these components last up to about 7
years or more anyway?  I know my truck is about 7 years old, and don't have
any problems related to the drivetrain (yet).
