Used Dodge Intrepid for Sale

This vehicle was purchased used and has given me a little trouble, but not as bad as it could have been. I'm not a mechanic but I would like to learn how to better care for my automobiles. This car, as I later learned has an engine that is reviled, mostly in relation to the car's water pump. This car seems very reliable and something that could last a long time if properly taken care of.

I have had my dodge intrepid for around five years now. When I got it there were 84,000 miles on it, now I have around 134,000 miles on it. So far I have taken my intrepid on two long trips(over 2000 miles) with only a blowout as my only issue with the car. It is a v6 which is not great on gas but not awful either. My state is littered with pot holes and by some miracle they have not taken a toll on my dodge. The power steering went out once but it was an easy fix. I also had to get the catalytic converter replaced when I first got it which is why I got the car at such a good price. All in all this car was very reliable and almost never let me down with break downs and maintenance.

I know this model has had known issues with engine sludge and issues dying around 100k total mileage, but I have owned this car for over 10 years. The body style is still in fashion and it has held together for a long time considering my insane driving. I owned it from my early 20s to my mid 30s and it still suits all my needs. It was spacious and comfortable enough to move me across country. Its leather seats are great for cleanup when the kids destroy the backseat with sticky things and some things that aren't even meant to be sticky. The trunk space is fantastic. I also feel pretty safe in the vehicle during long drives because it is built solid. I am not so happy to drive in snow and ice but the weight of the car keeps me grounded, sorry for the pun. Gas mileage across country was nice, around 28-32 mpg. In city around 16-18 mpg. If they made a newer model of this car, I would buy it in an instant, IF I had the heart to give up my current one.
