2001 Chrysler PT Cruiser Reviews
| “2001 Pt Cruiser” Reviewing:
2001 Used Chrysler PT Cruiser Limited
At first I wasn't too crazy about driving a PT Cruiser. A friend of my family owned it before I did, and being a car buff added an after-market grille, bumper covers, and some chrome trim. Since we got it I was in an accident and had to lose the grille. I also got some American Racing 5-spoke wheels for it. I've put 110,000 miles on it since I got it about 4 years ago, and it's really earned it's keep.
Pros —
Just keeps running!
Cons —
Same gas milage as a jeep.

| “Cruisin' Usa Style...” Reviewing:
2001 Used Chrysler PT Cruiser Limited
Turns like a truck, but loads of character - some major mechanical problems now it's getting older (with the transmission). Also problems with the bushes on the steering, parts are expensive too - but the engine is sound, and the body work has no problems (only self inflicted ones!) In all - it lives up to it's name - it cruises!
Pros —
Loads of character
Cons —
Parts are expensive when something goes wrong

| “Pt Bearnum” Reviewing:
2001 Used Chrysler PT Cruiser Limited
PT Bearnum is a 2001 PT Cruiser Limited. Many mods have been done - from wheels and tires to chrome trim and a full "woody" body kit. Slowly but surely, PT Bearnum has gone from 'plain jane" with some factory options and accessories to full blown show car. The 2.4 litre motor provides adequate performance and the handling is near perfect. Fully loaded as the Limited Edition model - power seat, windows, mirrors, locks, tilt, cruise, AC, leather, power sunroof and more, it's a fantastic value. The only downfall is the weight and the gas mileage. The basic PT Cruiser weighs in as much as the larger Dodge Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country short models. That leads to gas mileage that is far from stellar - usually low 20s for typical mix of highway and city/stop & go driving.
Pros —
comfort, versatility, style, equipment, price, ride, performance, aftermarket parts & accessories, built in car club culture.
Cons —
rather poor gas mileage for a car of it's size and the 4 cylender motor.

| “Good Beater Car” Reviewing:
2001 Used Chrysler PT Cruiser Limited
I'll do this later...
Pros —
Its black and it glows when clean. The custom PDM billet grille makes it stand out a little more. Its paid for.
Cons —
Its the first year it came out, I didn't get the extended warranty, had lots of suspension problems after warranty expired. Chrysler apparently knew about them and chose not to do any recalls or those 'bulletins'. They simply changed the designs for subsequent model years.
