Replying to: k2h (May 31, 2005 7:50 pm) I recently rented a Cruiser and I must say that I was quite impressed with the car. For the price range, the Cruiser is stylish and offers tremendous value. Since its introduction, the car has been reliable. I don't see much to complain about with this car.

Replying to: krony (Jan 27, 2007 8:01 pm) 42.2 MPG that would be nice.

Replying to: krony (Jan 27, 2007 8:01 pm) Sorry guys...made a major faux pas on the info in my earlier post. I forgot that the UK Imperial gallon is larger than the US gallon. The conversion is 1.2 to 1.   Here are the corrected numbers: PT Cruiser 2.4 Limited (Manual)ECONOMY Combined Cycle 25.1 mpg Extra Urban Cycle 32.3 mpg Urban Cycle 18.1 mpg    PT Cruiser 2.2 CRD (Manual) ECONOMY Combined Cycle 35.2 mpg Extra Urban Cycle 42.0 mpg Urban Cycle 27.3 mpg   No matter...I'd still rather have the diesel!!

I'd love to see heated mirrors on this car. I'd also like the audio controls on the steering wheel, but realize that would ruin the "sporty" look of it.   Other than that, I love this car.

Replying to: charlesf4 (Aug 03, 2007 5:53 pm) Here is my 02.   1.I love the 06-09 headlights but I don't like the lower grill on the 06-09 PT. add the 01-05 lower grill to match the upper grill and it will sell better.   2. Give us a true 2 door Panel PT, Base, turbo light, and a High output GT.   3. Bring back the GT with Stage 1 SRT4 PT and a Panel SRT4   4. let us build our own GT. start out with a Cloth, no sunroof/or spoiler.and let us build it with what we want on it.    5. build a better Autostick for the GT.

The changes needed for my '03 Limited with the 5-speed manual are minimal. At 97K miles I still get 26 MPG combined while using "Petey" for daily transportation (it's my personal micro-van). I hate the window lift switch placement and the original armrests. It needs a bit more sound insulation as well and, although I understand much of these shortcomings have been addressed in the latest models, I am left cold by the styling freshening.   The reliability I've enjoyed has been quite a surprise as has it's usefulness for the daily chores. I'd buy another but I hear they're being dropped. Too bad, really, as Chrysler needs a marketable vehicle now.

Replying to: pf_flyer (Oct 14, 2006 6:51 am) How about side view mirrors the same color as the body of the Cruiser? Replies to this message: arkainzeye (Jan 18, 2009 2:25 pm)
