Good enough at everything
Spacious enough, fast enough and comfortable enough for us, a retired couple. Auto transmission works well and I get mid 30s to the gallon driving within the speed limits. Downsides are the crazy indicators, poor internal storage and badly positioned heater controls. Have done 50k faultless miles in it with the the major exception of engine coolant getting into the transmission via a defective radiator/oil cooler. Luckily it was just within warranty otherwise it would have cost me several thousands.
