I do everything myself, and everything is easily doable. What type of costs are you talking about?

I have done a few repairs, but most of those have either been caused by the rust or neglect from previous owner

I like them. Good little cars, just hate the look of that sedan. The ass just looks so out of place. I heard the lower tiers of the Fiesta are still a blast to drive. Especially if you have manual.
>>
>>14288287
Yeah everyone seems to hate the sedan version, I've gotten used to it however and I actually don't mind.

The sedan is more convenient though IMO, trunk adds a lot more useful space than the hatch. The fiesta is already a small car so its not like I'm going to be shoving any tall/long objects in there anyways.

Sorry m90.
I averaged just over 34mpg last year in my 2.0L 5spd Focus, obviously the city driving the guy does has a big impact on his mpg.

>>14288481
He said it was "in assrapingly bad traffic" IIRC. I used to average 21mpg in my '95 Town Car.
>>
>>14288462
It's designed as an accessible everyday driver that does everything you want, its a "jack of all trades and master of none" type of vehicle. So for what it is it isn't a terrible car by that measure alone.

The standard 1.6L is kinda dated but it still competes well with most of the subcompact segment. If you really wanted super gas mileage you could just option the 1.0L Ecoboost which goes above 40 mpg city.

honestly like just dont have heavy keys and the car will stop thinking its being stolen. My last malibu for some weird reason deactivated itself or went into some sort of mode that never tripped itself again. Turn the car on and the theft light was just always on. Everytime you turned it on and it started up every single time.

My current one the light goes off and on and trips like once a month and you gotta sit in the parking lot looking like an idiot with the key in the ignition waiting for that damn theft light to stop blinking.

Got 286k off my last malibu until the transmission decided to quit. Good ol torque converter locked up.

but in all seriousness i get it. im not exactly a richfag either but there are options. go pull one out of a 95 tahoe in a junkyard for less than a grand. cam it, load it up with some bolt ons and youre good to go.
>>
>>14289092
Sounds like he was disconnecting a module underneath the seat as well. On some of the later ones, including my 9-5, one of the electronic management system modules is underneath the seat. Now, compared to, say, my cousin's 1992 Mercedes 600SEL, where everything is buried in a bunker-like box, this means it can at least be serviced...but it's still an oddball thing.

Personally, I find that the quirks and annoyances are worth some of the disadvantages because they add to the overall vibe of the car, like everything about it is super-different from lots of other stuff out there on the road, even if many of the elements are similar to others. Sure as hell ain't for everybody, though.

road noise is kinda loud
bastard child of a column shifter (seriously it's a monstrosity)
back seat is kinda cramped for fooling around, but then again I didn't try the trunk so maybe that's better

Love:
-Loads of torks and power
-Very roomy and comfortable to drive

Hate:
->American car with a shitty german diesel engine
-Ass end tends to slide around during winter a lot
-Isn't all that nippy and nimble, driving in the city can be a bit problematic

>>14289357
Man, it's a Chrysler 300C CRD.
Has an 3 litre Mercedes Benz OM642 diesel V6 and was sold only in Europe.
We never got the Magnum officially in Finland, only the Chrysler, so both the wagons and the sedans have the, in my opinion, superior Chrysler mask
>>
>>14289405
Can you imagine that glorious body with the proper srt8 hemi? It has a 300 interior?
>>
>>14289484
Yeah, the 300 interior is there aight, or at least it's almost identical to the CHarger interior.
I'll get the SRT8 one day, just you all wait and see. They are quite rare over here though, but that won't stop me.

Get a rear sway bar for your car, it will change the way it feels a lot. You might be able to start enjoying it when you get a little oversteer.
>>
>>14290797
Nah, I'm just gonna leave it as is.

Inherited it from a dead person, and I want to respect it. I'm just hoarding money right now, so I'll be able to afford a nice fun car like a BMW M2 soon.

2004 rav4

Good:
>25-30 mpg
>most reliable vehicle I've ever owned or heard of. 60k miles since I've owned it without a single thing breaking.
>Rediculous amount of storage in the back. I'm a carpenter/framer working on me GC license, and I carry all my tools in the back. Made myself a little shelf in the back out of scrap plywood. Carry all my cordless tools/air compressor/framing+trim gun/cables/hoses/toolbags/PPE. Back seats have a large bin that holds chemicals and fastners. I can run my business out of that car and all my tools are protected from the elements. All this car does is give, and asks nothing for me except a bi-weekly fillup when things are busy.

Cons:
>Can't haul plywood or any stock longer than 8'.
>Didn't buy the 4WD version.
>Ain't getting me no booty like a Duramax or Powerstroke would.

That's a feature bruh. You won't be replacing $400 door actuators or window motors in 10 years like the other scrubs. My dad has an 07 and it hasn't needed a thing being replaced since he got it new 90k miles ago.

Its rad and i like it but its not fast and it never will be
