The Toyota Matrix is one of the best vehicles I have ever owned. It has the perfect size of not being too big or too small, as well as having a good amount of storage in the back. Performance is good and gas mileage is still good even to this day.

This car has been super dependable. 180,000 miles and still going strong! The original battery lasted in the darn thing for 8 years! The A/C still works great and have never experienced any electrical problems. The only think we have had to replace was the alternator when the car was 7 years old. The headlights seem to get "foggy" easily. We get them cleaned professionally and it reappears too quickly. The CD player worked for only a short time but who uses CDs anymore? Gas mileage is awesome. I travel in heavy red light traffic 16 miles to work one way and I have to visit the pump once every 12 days! I have had to have very minor work done to this vehicle. The interior has held up over the years, with kids and dogs as passengers. We have cleaned crayon and food mess with ease. We have even flipped down the back seat a toted a live Christmas tree home. When it comes time for a different ride, I will be on the hunt for a "new" used Matrix!
