I bit the bullet and bought a wine colored (red) 2016 Chevy Cruze today. It is a nice car, it has just under 30k on the odometer. Looking forward to all future roadtrips with it.
Nice - I'm still on my first car purchase and it's been running great -a 2009 (I bought it in 2011 from the original) Hyundai Elantra still runs great. It doesn't hurt that I only drive like 8K miles per year. The secret is limited driving and staying ahead of maintenance - no road trips for me!
I don't take road trips that often, but normally I drive about 5-6k a year, even with the road trips I take.
