I love the space. It is the perfect amount. I can stick my groceries in the back and still have enough leg room in the front. What is most interesting to me about the car is it's quietness. I had a diesel VW before and it was quite loud and clunky. The space is something I needed in an SUV but couldn't afford the most popular ones.

The SUV is compact enough to make it through large cities but big enough for a family to take an adventure for the weekend. I enjoy the price I paid for it and the above average gas mileage I received with it. Mine came with WiFi built in which was great for my kids who love to watch YouTube on long trips. Mine also has all wheel drive which is great because I live in upstate New York where it tends to snow a lot, have not had any trouble getting around our snow covered town yet. The rear vision camera is an added bonus for tight city parking spaces, which only makes this compact car more maneuverable in small tight spots. The large easy to navigate touch screen radio is an added feature that makes it much easier to switch between radio stations when I am traveling on the interstate. This is one of my favorite cars I have owned.

I had a 2014 Cruse, and I loved it. We drove 23000 mile in 2 years. Just bought my Trax two days ago and the Trax is so much more comfortable getting in and out. I have had back problems getting in and out of the lower sitting cars. It has the same motor as the Cruse but the Trax seems a little more peppier. I did some research on the Trax and it seems 50/50, either you love it or you hate it. We love ours can't wait for our next road trip. Take it for a long test drive, do your research and decide what you want before you go to the dealership and feel pressured. I did make one compromise and that was the color and I can live with that.
