2005 Toyota Matrix Wagon XR Fwd 4dr Wagon (1.8L 4cyl 5M)
Small car with big feel
 I bought this car to save money on gas over my F-150 4x4.  The mileage is great at between 29-32 MPG city driving back and forth to work.  I'm 6'5" and am amazed at how comfortably I fit into it.  It's a very reliable car, in 18 months, I have had no problems.  I change the oil and put gas in it.  The interior is awesome with multiple seat configurations when I need space.  The outlet in the dash is cool, as are all of the other features I have (premium sound, 17" wheels, sun roof, cruise and A/C).  With the 5 speed, it runs very well (not a race car), to include highway traffic with the A/C on - no problems!
