Well my malibu's head gasket blew last week and I had been driving our F250 Powerstroke til yesterday = costs more to run, supposed to be good vehicle that doesn't get ran.SOOO I looked around and went to test drive a car last night, well I brought it home!!! I am the official owner of a 2008 Dodge Caliber SE Automatic. it's a burnt orange color. I love it. Gets AWESOME gas mileage, drives like a dream. It had 19000 miles on it so I got the bumper to bumper factory warranty with it for another 18000 miles or a year. Just wanted to share my happy news!!!!!!!!!!
This is my first time owning a dodge.

You haven't told them the best part!
It DOES NOT shift!!!!!!!! It has a CVT tranny kinda like a ATV......it runs on a belt driven system!
Cooler in the glove box for drinks on those long trips
Back and passenger sear fold COMPLETELY flat
Rear cargo removable flashlight
And so so much more!
