CartRich's 2006 Chrysler PT Cruiser

It doesn't get great gas mileage, but it has lots of room and is fun to drive.

Looks just like mine before I started modifying it.

I really enjoy mine. I don't drive far, so at the most I burn up a 1/4 tank a week. Since the cost of gas has come down, it is less of an issue than it used to be. I find it to be nimble although the turning radius is pretty wide. It sits up pretty high, unlike my prior car which was a Lebaron which sat low. The windshield cuts a little low and I find that when I pull up to a stop light I either have to stay back from the stop line to see the light, or I have to hunch over the wheel too see the light. However, it does have lots of room in this car. With the back seat up, it doesn't look like it will hold much, but drop or remove the back seats and wow it is much bigger. About the only thing I have come across so far that I would like to haul but can't is a sheet of plywood although a roof rack would probably remedy that. I don't know how the reliability is but so far I have only had to contend with oil changes. The car is a 2006 and at this writing only has 12565 miles on it so far. Some sites complain about the reliability (Consumer Reports anyone? But they only like overpriced foreign cars anyways) but I have yet to run into a problem other than road hazards to the tires. As far as I am concerned, my purchase was money well spent.

Yeah I rented one a couple of weeks ago and it really didn't get great mileage. Not much changed it. I drove it in the city and on the highway and it always got between 19.2 mpg and 22.0 mpg. not much of a flucuation. Hey would you recomend this car? When I rented it I fell in love with it. This is suprising considering I'm not a big fan of the exterior styling. But it was just so good that I could completely ignore that. It had decent power and it really was fun to drive. I just want to hear from someone who actually owns the car before I decide to purchase one. Thanks in advance for any insite you have.
