Hi All. Time for some pictures of my car. :)

Basic Car Pics

(In case you were wondering, those Yakima racks came right off my Sidekick and went right on my Aerio. :o  )

Still looking into one.
Hard to find the AWD  w A/T ones tho. People just don't give those up.
Was/is yours AWD?
How you liking it so far?

I like it. It gets me good gas mileage, and is plenty zippy. I love how the back seats fold flat and make a flat floor in the cargo area.

Mine's a manual, therefore, not AWD. In the Aerios, you can only get AWD in auto.

The new SX4's however, you can.

Mine is a 06 awd with auto tranny.
Milage doesn't seem to great so far.
100miles 1/2 tank so far.
maybe they (dealer)didn't top it off when I bought it.
Fun and zippy for an auto.

Whacked.

You got an 06 though, cool! Then that means my PM is a little late!  :)

I get between 23-28 in town (depending on what mood I'm in) and 33-35 on the freeway.

But I have the 2.0L, you have the new 2.3L.

You just lost half your trunk!! :o 
I wanted more bass for my JLX, but I did not want to lose any back end space.  Oh well .... trade offs.  I am impressed with the fuel economy.  I have been kicking around diffrent options to deal with the hugh summer fuel costs.  Thanks for shareing.

Eh, no big deal. My rear seats fold forward completely flat. Lots of room back there.  :)
