Let?s review the good: the 115 V outlet let me keep my laptop plugged in and always charged. I drive about 30,000 miles a year on average (I work from my car). I live in Pennsylvania winters here are horrible and long, with lots of snow. I was looking for a vehicle with good gas mileage and AWD. I love the looks of this car! I have the version with almost everything from leather seats to illuminated cup holders, sunroof, and those big beautiful 18 Inches polished wheels. I own a 2007 Dodge Caliber R/T 2.4 liters AWD. The Caliber felt much safer to drive, and it was easier to control. I also loved driving my mom's Mitsubishi Spyder Eclipse GTS, but I felt very insecure driving it because I was always afraid of losing control of it or accelerating too much. May I add that this was a perfect car for me as a new driver. The only reason we sold it was because we had to move out of the country. It was a really great, practical car for us, and I would buy another without a doubt. My only real problem with the car was that it was a little hesitant to shift into a higher gear sometimes, and the automatic transmission would grind a little bit when that happened, but after it shifted, it would go as fast as one cared to go. It was fantastic for long drives (we drove it from Indiana to southern Tennessee and it was really comfortable) The rear seats recline, so it was easy to take a nap or lean back to read no matter which seat one chose. Also, the car handled really well in bad weather, and I never felt insecure while driving in rain or snow. It's an easy car to drive because it's not too big, but it sits higher up than expected, so it felt like I was driving an SUV. He bought it new in 2007, and I started driving a little over a year ago, so he let me use it fairly often.
