My 2010 Honda Fit is fine. Nice little car. Good on gas mileage. For it's size it has a ton of storage space. It also great to park in the city because it is so small. Only down side is limited passenger room in the back and it sucks in rain and snow.

Overall I still like it but it doesn't fit my needs anymore.

I recently wrecked my 4Runner and liked it enough to buy pretty much the exact same vehicle a week later. I looked at Tundras, FZJ80/LX450, and even considered newer (2005+) tacomas. I still think the 3rd gen 4runner is the best all around grocery getter that can handle some decent off road stuff. it has a locking differential straight from the factory, it's suspension is 100% toyota (albeit a mis-match of FJ80 and Tundra parts) and it can do all the 3-banana trails in Moab and around CO.

The wife's TSX: meh. Definitely nice, but kinda boring to drive.

2010 Honda Fit Sport.

I can't complain. The only thing I don't love about it is the 1994 Ford Taurus cloth they used on the seats and doors. It's awful. It's pretty slow, too. But, excellent gas mileage, reliable as shit, and it stores anything I can throw at it. I see myself having it for a long time, at least until I'm through medical school and residency ... (2021+). I'll probably toss a new motor in it eventually and keep it for a grocery getter/beat around car.

I was rear-ended last week. I'll probably need a new hatch. Drivers are awful here, good god.

2012 TL Tech. Car has great features, enough power to get out of its own way, and a good amount of trunk and back seat space. The biggest gripe is it is not an SH-AWD model so the handling is a little blah. I lease the car, so I think my next vehicle is going to be an SUV because I want the additional hauling space. If the TL had a fold down rear seat I would get another one.
