Most Reliable Car I've Owned

I was looking for a car to commute to and from college and this was perfect. It's modern, reliable, and great on mileage. 3 years later and I'm still happy with my purchase. The maintenance is normal and I've not had problems with it so far.

My favorite color on any vehicle I've owned.

The interior design is slick but the backseat could use a makeover. Well, at least more legroom in my opinion. I like the blue glow from the speedometer/accelerometer whilst in the backseat.

Economical Quality Car

This is a nice, basic car that meets my transportation needs. As a bigger person (6'5" and over 275 lbs), I fit very well in the driver's seat, passenger seat, and even in the back with plenty of headroom. It has great gas mileage as well. It's not super fast or powerful but works great for simple and economical transportation.

Great gas mileage and comfort.

Most reliable car I've ever owned. Great mileage (30 -34mpg in town). Smooth ride, great pick up. Comfortable seating. No build quality issues. This car is quiet, dependable, and exceeds my expectations.

Worst car I’ve ever had

It was good for the first 3 years , the last 2 1/2 have been horrible. Multiple times for misfire intake manifold issues now I have possible engine failure from cracked piston. Worst Chevy I’ve ever had.
