    Gas mileage is horrible in the city, she is loud and loves to growl...I don't care, I'm in love.

    What kind of car do you drive? What do you like and dislike about it? Would you recommend it to someone asking you if they should get one?

    I have a 2004 Honda Pilot EX-L

    Likes:
    Tons of cargo space
    Optional extra seating with third row
    4500 lb towing capacity (with towing package installed)
    Reliable (mine is at 91,000 miles with no problems at all)
    Decent gas mileage for as big as it is
    Really comfortable to drive on the highway, so great for roadtrips
    Backseat has center console and lots of storage for kids and their stuff
    Car doesn't get really hot in the summer from tinted rear windows and just the design of the vehicle
    Heated front seats for cold weather
    TONS of console storage
    No blind spots
    Good tight turning radius for a full-size SUV. I can park it almost anywhere
    VTM-4 which can get you out of a situation where 1-2 tires get stuck by redistributing power to the other wheels
    REALLY nice factory sound system

    Dislikes:
    Sometimes it's too big for daily commuting unless you have a lot to carry in the car every day
    Decent horsepower, but it's a little underpowered for as heavy as it is
    No MP3 jack factory installed. I had one put in aftermarket.
    Tires are expensive

    Really though, I love my truck. I had a 2007 Civic before, and I needed the extra cargo space. Originally, I was in the market for something in the small-SUV range (CR-V or Rav4 size), but I'm glad I got the bigger size. It's been really useful for gardening, offroad trips, and roadtrips.

    The 2009 tows 5000 now...
    Underpowered? I didnt check yet if they changed the engine but the 2009 is prime and powerful...
    I am lucky, I have the MP3 plug, but sadly not USB...

    Tires? I agree! Actually, it's expensive like all trucks... but still...
    I have pass from the CR-V to the Pilot... trust me, if you plainly like trucks, even though the CR-V is a very nice SUV, the Pilot is another world!

    I have a 2012 Nissan Juke. I got it in December.

    I love it. It has a turbo engine and is super zippy and cute. Gas mileage is pretty good. I love the fact that you can switch driving modes from Normal to Eco (more efficient, a little less zip) and Sport (tons of zip, not as efficient as far as gas mileage). I keep it in Normal most of the time.

    I drive a 2008 Toyota Prius and LOVE it. Would definitely recommend it. Haven't had any problems with it, past almost having it totaled and being without it for about three months. :-( My main complaint is that if you want to get a past increase in speed you REALLY have to floor it, and, of course, that kills your mileage. I get around 45-51 mpg in the summer and around 41-45 mpg in the winter.
    To be honest, I don't see myself ever driving another car other than a Prius until it gets so that electric vehicles can go around 300 miles per charge.

    I have a 2008 Toyota Prius. I love it. I love the safety features and the gas mileage. You can pack a surprisingly large amount into it, too. We originally got it because I had to drive 120 miles round trip three times a week to get my husband to physical therapy in either a 2006 Chevy Equinox or 2007 Ford Mustang GT. They were to expensive to run, so my husband traded in his mustang (yes, he did it, not me) and got the Prius. I love it. He drives a 1998 Mitsubishi Montero Sport, he has a Fiat of some sort (I really don't know) and also a 1967 Cadillac Coupe DeVille that he wants to restore.

    ETA: I live in Montana, and it gets through the snow just fine!

    2010 Nissan Cube. I LOVE it. Great gas mileage, much roomier than it looks from the outside and it's just FUN to drive. Have no complains about it, only that I wish I had bought the charcoal one and not silver.

    Forgot to mention I named it Mario.

    I drive a 2008 Subaru Impreza. I love it the AWD and it's a nice car. Downside is the color, I don't like red, the tan cloth seats and I would like a better gas mileage.
    My fiance is a bit of a Subaru fanatic which works out because he can always fix my car if there was ever anything wrong with it! He spends most of his time working on his old Subaru XT.

    Meanwhile, I would love to have an SUV with leather seats and a sun roof! XD If only I could afford an SUV.
    I like the Subaru Forester or the Toyota RAV4.

    Maybe one day...

    I have a 2001 Ford Escort that I use all the time to go to work and anything else I need to do.. I like my escort it has been through so much.It blew a engine about a year ago and I got it fixed.. It runs good but has had several things done to it. I would recommend this car to anyone..
    I also have a 1950 Chevy pickup that I show and use once in awhile.. My brother fond it sitting in a old barn and restored it with the help of my hubby. I show it at Car show and it is my baby.. I recommend if anyone likes working on cars to get a old one and restore it.. They are Great and sturdy cars/trucks

    I drive a 2012 Ram 1500. I love it! I've had it for almost 2 weeks now. Before that I had a 2006 Dodge Ram 1500 Lonestar edition (we only had the 06 for a yr and had the transmission rebuilt 3 times so we had to get out of it!)

    The one thing I don't like about it is that it doesn't have any running boards (yet) or steps and I'm short; the cool thing about it is that it has this eco setting- when you are above a certain RPM it turns on and keeps s4 cylinders from firing so it saves on gas. Pretty nifty.

    I would definetly suggest it to my friends :)

    2007 Kia Spectra
    Love it. Hate that never asked if it had cruise control when I bought it. I assumed all new cars came with it standard. Silly me.

    2003 Toyota Corolla, 205,000 miles and never a problem, with exception of having to replace a dual catalyic (?) converter...my fault, hit a berm and broke it up...spendy fix, but other than that it's always run extremely well and I put over 600 miles a week on it on average (commuter here).
