The only other maintenance items I've done is...

-1 belt replacement
-1 battery replacement
- replaced spark plugs
- rear tail light bulbs
& of course oil and tires

Congrats ! My first repair was also a wheel bearing, but front not rear,,,,and yours lasted longer (replaced mine at 110k+). I almost made it to your new milestone with 1 repair, but my alternator crapped out at 159k+. No repairs since, though . My maintenance = pretty similar to yours except more batteries (Texas heat + 2 cheap (but did squeeze 136k out of the 2 of them) 1yr batteries...just replaced the 2nd one with the same one CTScott has (NAPA Legend)) and different bulbs (headlight and plate light bulbs), part of a bottle of coolant, and replacing the control arm bolts, + ? (= on this thread, or will be within a few days .
