Great car for commuting. I’m the original owner and I have over 160K miles. Oil changes, tires and a battery change. I’ve even had a small accident (rear ended) fixed by insurance and keeps running.

Great buy for those with low income or looking to offset costs to save money in the long run. Its great around construction or narrow roads. Super easy to handle, with back up camera most operations can be handled on the steering wheel such as the radio and phone. A lot of head room. Truck space will surprise you how much you can put back there. Great acceleration, and all around save money on maintenance and upkeep.
