2015 Honda Fit - Useful little car
This is probably the most useful and cost-effective vehicle I have ever owned. Carries more than a full-sized car with better gas mileage. Small but seats five if needed. Initial cost was not bad and I have had it for less than year(ten months) and already put almost 16,000 miles on it without issues.
Story
Parking is a breeze in this tiny car when I go into my local large city. I used to drive my jeep into the city just so I could find parking but the low gas mileage was killing me. The Fit works much better for city driving.
Pros
The gas mileage is undoubtedly the best thing about this vehicle. I consistently get over thirty MPG and on long distances average about 40 or more. It is ridiculously easy to park(the backup camera helps with that also). I especially like the seat configuration in the back. It will seat three people back there but the seats also move up and down or together so that I am able to fit more in the back seat than I could in my full-sized Accord. I got the rubber floor mats and my dogs are able to ride in the back with the seat up and not damage the seats.
Cons
The overly large windshield can be distracting until you get used to it. It slants very far forward and has smaller side windows on either side of the dashboard that make it possible to see things I was not used to seeing out of the corner of my eye when driving. The intermittent wipers are not very, or too very, intermittent and can not be adjusted. I have found that the defrost does not work well on the windshield, causing it to fog up during rainy whether even if I keep the air conditioning on(something that has usually worked for me on other cars I have owned). Cracking the window to c... (more)
2009 Honda Fit - Fit is fit!
I purchased this car from an auto auction two years ago. It had low mileage, and I wanted a car that would be good on gas. My Honda Fit has exceed my expectations. I do mostly city driving now, and the Fit gets it! It is a zippy car with plenty of power and so easy to zig and zag around town. I am my son's dog walker and sitter, so every weekday I pick Kaia up and drive to the park. If for some reason we walk instead of drive to park, she is very mad. She loves to ride in the Fit! My car is the basic model, and there are not a lot of frills. I have taken it on highway drives, and it performs very well even on hilly terrain.
Story
My son's dog loves her morning car rides. She is a big dog and sits in the front passenger seat, very tall and looking straight ahead. She gets lots of attention when people see her. They usually smile or wave. Kaia just stares straight ahead. We have been known to order some fries from the drive thru. Everyone loves to see her.
Pros
It's zippy. Very fun and easy to drive. Easy to park. Fits a whole lot more in the car than you would think. Good on gas. Nothing wrong with it at last inspection except new brake pads. It's just a delight to drive.
Cons
Just wish it were a tad bigger so that when I have grandchildren they will all fit inside.

2009 Honda Odyssey - Dix Honda State College
The customer service is second to none. Every time I have had to have service done with this vehicle, it is done in a reasonable time frame and with a great deal of courtesy.
2007 Honda Civic - Bob Ruth Ford Dillsburg
We were in a jam and needed a car fast. Bob Ruth allowed us to drive away a car that same day! The transmission went out on my car and they still accepted it as a trade. Two thumbs up for these guys. The staff is friendly.
