I test drove one of those when I was in-between Mazdas just to see if it was better and was disappointed with the handling and power. Plus it was $8k more at the time. The Mazda I bought instead has only needed brakes and tires once in 8 years.

Tou definitely should be replacing your brakes and tires more than once every 8 years

I drive around 6k mi a year and get them checked often. I rode my bike to work instead.
