Overall, the vehicle is decent. It has a good amount of hip and head room in the drivers sear area which is key for me being a bigger person. I also like that as a base model it had many of things I considered to be "must have" options. The main thing I dislike about this vehicle is the transmission. It is very choppy in low gears and tends to rev the RPMs too much when accelerating. I also don't like the engine shut off that happens when the car comes to a complete stop. This is a gas saving feature, but I'm not a big fan of it. You can turn it off with a button, but it cannot be permanently shut off.

I bought this car when I was in college and had little cash to go on. I have had it for more than ten years and the previous owner took good care of the car. It 'rattles' when you go over 60 on the highway. The rust on the exterior has made my mechanic say that the car has cancer. Recently, the car has not started on multiple occasions. I have bought a new battery but this does not seem to do anything. It has very poor gas mileage. The only pro it is has had the trunk capacity to help me move 5 times after college.
