This car has been very good to us. My favorite memory of the car was taking road trips with my wife and our Jack Russel would perch on the center console between us. I loved the moon roof. I've had some mechanical issues with it. The power steering developed a leak, and I would have to refill fairly frequently. I was so disappointed when I hit a major pothole on the highway and damaged the axle and broke tie rods. I've noticed that this model tends to rust around the wheel well. This car was my daily driver for many years.

I needed a good gas mileage low cost car to get to for work as my top priority. I got a little over what I wanted in payments, not bad but here is the worst part. It gets 19mpg on my commute and 17 if I am late and racing the car. Going back to the dealer they just point out on the sticker (I kept) that even though it says 30-40, in very small print by that it says 13-99mpg.
