Parked next to a coworkers Kia Soul before an 8 hour shift. Inadvertent Shoprite advertising.
Also some late night Super Eurobeat to make your...slow ride down the highways at midnight more....relaxing. Yea that's what we'll call it.

Too bad there isn't more than one black Kia box there, 'cause then they would be-

I really like the Cube. How is the reliability?

So far mine has been perfect. There's a bit of talk about exhaust needing replacing after various amounts of miles. Also a small percent of 09 model years needed to have the CVT replaced (first year that the cube was out in the US so that's expected.) but aside from that, no real big or common issues from what I've read.

Well most of that is good news, but cvt? ew

Them superior MPGs, bro. Srsly. This car has a manual option but the CVT gets better MPGs. Plus it's not a sports car. Or a performance car of any sorts. So a manual isn't really needed.

Nissan makes a very good CVT. Probably why they use it instead of a normal automatic.

but the whole accelerating without the revs increasing thing just seems wrong.

They increase as you accelerate but go back down when you hold a certain speed. It's how the cube can achieve the fuel economy that it does.

Are those spaces massive, or does your Cube and the Soul just make them seen that way?
