Because my basic commute to work is less than 1 mile (I can easily walk or bike if I'm not having to haul stuff), I don't build up a lot of daily commute miles.
I did buy the extended wall-to-wall warranty, 100K miles + 6 years (the additional year was $80, so what the heck), since I expect to do maybe 15-20K mi per year.
So far, I'm loving this car but haven't had time to sit down and go through all the electronic options. Have all of 100 mi. on the car at this stage just running errands around town plus one stint on hwy to check out acceleration and so on.
Compared with my old '97 Taurus (which I've built into my physical memory....), the steering ratio is not quite as high, but it's quite good.
People who've seen the Atlantis Green color really like it and remark on the luminescence of the paint (in sunlight). Under clouds the car really doesn't look black to me, just very dark.
