2004 Saturn Ion Coupe with 135,000 miles on it, currently. It's a comfortable little car that you can easily hop into and run a few errands around town. It's sporty looking enough to where even though it is 15 years old, it still fits in with the modern look of newer cars on the road. It reminds me of the Defiant on Star Trek, a tough little car that has a personality.
Story
There are a lot of people surprised at how old the vehicle is, it has held up well over the years. I was having some electronics checked on it one day, and the guy said it was in great condition, wondered how I did it.
Pros
My favorite feature of this vehicle has to be the rear suicide doors that access the back seat. It looks pretty cool when you open all the doors, and because the doors all open that way, it has good cargo space it you pack it in right. I fit in a freezer I bought at Best Buy. Couldn't have done that with regular or no doors. This car is super in the snow. My girlfriend has a 2018 Kia Optima and kept getting stuck when it snowed six inches while my car went right though it like butter.
Cons
If you like a car with some get-up-and-go, this is not for you. It gets great gas mileage, but that's because the engine is a 2.2 liter 4 banger. The stereo is a run of the mill factory stereo, I guess they expected it to be replaced with an after-market pretty quickly when it was purchase. It does play CDs, though, but those are becoming a thing of the past. Rear brakes are drum brakes, do not like.

The Saturn Ion preforms remarkably well. It's easy on the gas budget. It is a smaller car, but actually, there is a surprising amount of trunk space. Not much maintenance has had to have been preformed in the years that I've owned the car. I put a lot of miles on each way, and it keeps chugging along. Surprising amount of trunk space. For somebody who hunts and fishes, you'll be able to take your day's game home short of an elk. Not a great amount of power in the accelerator, but I did not expect there to be. I find the cartridge oil filter kind of annoying, but I can get past that. My vehicle did not come with power windows. I can get past that. The cabin stays pretty quiet. All being said, this is a pretty decent ride at a good price with exceptional gas mileage and good reliability... (more)
Story
I took it to my last hunt, and I was able to dress out a decent-size deer and fit it in the trunk, wrapped in a tarp of course.
Pros
Gas mileage. Trunk space. Reliability. Low maintenance. Rides quiet.
Cons
Size of the cabin. Low rate of acceleration. Riding lower than I was used to. Cartridge oil filter. No power windows.

This dealership had great customer service and was ready to assist me immediately. They did not have tactics to persuade me to buy the car, but rather provided the information I needed to make my purchase decision. They also offered a vehicle warranty that was an additional benefit.

The salesman was a younger man who didn't dick me around. I went in and got what I wanted without having to jump through hoops.
