Any high mileage 8th gen owners here? How’s your car chugging along so far?

I'll update from my post a few years ago,
My 2017 SL is now at 140,000 miles. Nothing major so far. CVT fluid every 30k miles. Did the spark plugs at 110k. My control arms or something is starting to wear (or so my dealer says)
I do think my alternator is showing some signs of needing to be replaced though. There was one instance of me losing power on the highway with no acceleration so I pulled over and then I turned off my car and then it wouldn't turn on again. Got a jump, changed the battery and it was fine but the battery warning light flashes on and off sometimes under medium to hard acceleration. Then it goes away. This happens every so often.
I recently got a Miata so will be daily driving that so the Maxima probably won't be growing in miles alot going forward.
