What's your milage on it? The '08 was heavy highway use and is at 141K kms already. I'm not worried, but Mrs. NWBR kinda is. (City girl) -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jan 23, 13:53 9
- Oh, it's only like 47,000. But we've had it for seven years with very little trouble. - Kim Pine Jan 23, 13:58 6
  - Oh, I forgot about the starter. She's right. -- nm - David Jan 23, 14:00 2

  - And mileage is okay, but with newer models it might be better. They did some things to boost it since then. -- nm - Kim Pine Jan 23, 13:59 2
    - The '08 is supposedly rated for 24.5mpg in city, but if I get 20-22ish, I'm satisfied. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jan 23, 14:03 1
      - We're on the side of a mountain so I'm sure our gas mileage is at the low end. -- nm - David Jan 23, 14:08
- We have 45k miles on it and its mileage was 19 MPG last time I looked. - David Jan 23, 13:57 1
  - Excellent reviews. Hoping that car is still there after work to check out. (It was there last night.) -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Jan 23, 13:58
