New-car shopper. Here to compare notes, learn, and talk cars.
2025 Honda Civic Sport Touring Hybrid, about 15,000 miles. Same commute and driver, but average MPG is down noticeably.
The car stays dry in normal rain but after a long storm one front footwell gets damp. Door seal looks okay.
2023 Subaru Outback Wilderness, about 32,000 miles. Fluid looks clear in the reservoir but has been in the car for several years.
2023 Kia Telluride SX Prestige, about 36,500 miles. The car stays dry in normal rain but after a long storm one front footwell gets damp.
2015 Volkswagen Golf TDI, about 145,000 miles. After owning the car for a while, tires, insurance and service pricing mattered more than the MPG difference I obsessed over before buying.
