I find that hard to believe. Thousands have gone into the ancient Volvo my sister drives (it was ancient when we got it; my mother's not so skilled at the 'buying cars' gig), vs the...$11 I've put into fixing my bike (rear brakepads + shifter cable). Well, another $15-20 for headlight/rear blinker, and I could _use_ a rear tire, but that's a fair sight less than the equivalent parts for a car.

Also, you don't have to pay for gas. Or as much oil.

As far as the squeaking goes, I'm a perfectionist. And it's loud, damnit.
