And I’ve forgotten that it’s actually really fun to drive. If only it were manual. But it’s had 150k completely trouble free miles, so that makes up for it.

It’s still possible, but I’m probably getting this instead:

Two different generations there, but that is why I like it. It’s my Mom’s though.

Depends on dealers, insurance, and what kind of deal I can get.

Similar to how I feel driving the wife’s. Really good car, I’m hoping we get many trouble-free miles out of it, outside of the airbag recall...

No clue if our’s has escaped that or not. I don’t know if we’ve gotten a letter yet.

Good choice either way. Turbo 4 or V6?

Turbo 4. I think down the road it will stay a better choice, once the warranty is gone and the mod bug bites.

Manual or Auto? Ours it auto, and you can definitely tell it has 150k miles on it. The manual shift is incredibly slow now. It shifts fine, but it’s less fun.

Stick. Before the minivan all of the cars in the driveway were manual. Which was great, and thankfully the Mrs. and I had no leg issues that would have prevented our driving of them, haha.

I’d get the previous gen, with the 2ZZ.
