10k miles since January:


I love this car! Every time I drive it, it's like doing a victory lap. And the more I drive it, the better it seems to work. It was using a quart of oil every 1500 miles or so, but doesn't seem to be drinking any at all anymore. The idle used to hunt a fair bit when I first started in the morning, but that seems to have stopped. I also used to get an AWD/ABS warning when I went over big bumps, or accelerated over bumps, but that's less and less frequent. It really is meant to be driven!

What I really enjoy is the day-to-day stuff that you don't usually think of doing with these cars. Dropping the kids off at daycare, getting a full load of groceries, buying piles of stuff at home depot. (got 8 boxes of ceramic tile in it last week!)

Just a great all-rounder, the more I use it, the more practical it seems
