 Love the car.  Gets us through the snow.  Gas mileage is better than we could expect for being called a "truck".  Stay with the higher rated Ethanol gas (manual states tested). We have on occasion had to fill up with the regular brands.  Expensive!!  Had a 1995 Altima before.  It got us 100km more on ethanol.  This vehicle gets us 100kms more than the Altima on a fill-up.  (Both same size of tank.)  Averaged 32 mpg on a trip that had freeway and city driving.  Original tires were 17 inch all seasons.  Very stiff ride.  Felt all the bumps in the road.  When needing snow tires, we called around and found out you could put on 16 inch tires.  Saved us a lot of money, and, have a smoother ride.
