This car has been great so far. I bought it used as a commuter car 3 years ago and have put on about 120K so far, it now has around 260K and is still running great. It has good performance for a big car and the economy isn't bad considering the size of this car. I average about 32 MPG on the highway and have found the maintenance to be minimal. I don't worry at all about this car letting me down at all like I have with other cars getting up in miles. There is lots of comfort features and the noise level is very low. The car is smooth and easy to drive, also easy to keep clean. A great choice if you are looking for a bigger second car (in this age group)
