Absolute best car ever made

This is hands down the greatest, most reliable, and functional car I’ve ever owned. I received this car from my cousin a year and a half ago and I’ve put 25,000 miles on it so far. The car has 290,000 miles and I just drove it from Southern California to Tennessee and had zero problems. This car absolutely walked up the Rocky Mountains through Colorado. I drove for 22 hours straight and got 30 mpg the entire way. Absolute unit of a car.

I cant part with it

Very good for long journeys, great mileage, stable on high speed and very safe. I bought it used as second owner for my daughter. She graduated two degrees driving it and passed it on to her younger sister who equally drove till graduation. The car drove Florida-TN 4return trips, then TN-California without any problem I still own the car and she is such a lady. I cant find myself parting with it.
