Dang! That's newer than anything I own
You can run into problems with any vehicle. Yes, "older" cars can nickle and dime you, but I've found that if you "like" the car, then you spend the nickle or dime until it's fixed up. Then, most likely, you'll have a much better car than a lot of newer ones (which, by the way, will also nickle and dime you).
I'd go cross-country in any of my vehicles, even though there're "old". Currently I have an '67, 72, 83, and an '86.

PS: I should mention that it's a major difference if you have to pay to have work done, or if you can do some / most of the work yourself. Being an X-automotive / truck tech, I can do a lot myself. My only hinderance is working conditions, ie. no shop, lift, equipment, other than basic tools, etc...
