How Much Does.....................?

How much would car maintenance cost for a 15 year old car with 130,000 miles.I drive about 1,200 miles a month and I live in Michigan. How much would normal maintenance(oil changes, tune-ups, fluids, brakes, tires, etc...) and whatever you can think of that I forgot, cost for one year. Doesn't need to be exact, just an estimate.How Much Does.....................?

It depends on the car. In a year's time you would hopefully only need to do routine oil changes ($20-$100 depending on if you do them yourself of take the car somewhere). Tires if needed, run 80-150 per tire and up depending on quality, brand name and size. Tune ups run from $60-400 depending on car and where you have it done, and really only needs to be done every 60-100,000 miles depending on the quality of parts used. Brake jobs are $100-1,000 per axle, again depending on the car, the quality of parts used, and where you have the work done. Check edmunds.com as this is a good website that will show average annual costs of most every vehicle on the road. You should also go to fueleconomy.gov and check the fuel mileage that your car gets and factor fuel costs into the equation.
