Funny, my brother in Ohio bought one last year. I had flown up to visit him a couple years ago and rented a car. PT Cruiser. It could move pretty good, but then I think it had 2K miles on it and was still relatively solid. :smile: I liked it, but only until I drove a Mini.

Then I made up my mind that if I should buy another little car it would be the Mini. My brother liked the looks of the PT. Never drove it and went out and bought one, no test drive!:???: .

Without driving it first.:exclaim: :exclaim: :exclaim: Now, he lets the thing sit.

His Focus has more miles and has been wrecked by his grandson twice!

He likes it more than the PT. Calls the PT a PO*. Complains that it can't turn sharp:frown: , NO DUH! Gets crappy mileage:frown: , again NO DUH! Something like 22 mpg Highway at 75 mph:shock: . And like David said it rattles. He hates it:grumpy: . Never mind the grief he gets from his wife for buying it:wife: :wife: :wife: :wife: . He's waiting on the next truely new Focus in a couple years and says if it's as nice as the old ZTS he's buying it to replace both the ZTS and PT.:wink:
So, yeah David, I understand. The gal down the street from me buys a new one every couple years. Thinks it's wonderful.:neutral:
