With having the father/son T-bird to work on, I decided to give up the Durango and Cobra and get a decent year round vehicle for myself. I am happy with the choice I made so far. 2011 Chevy Malibu, some dealer pics below - I will take some good ones tomorrow most likely.

Adam's Grandpa traded in his F-150 for one of those for better gas mileage and to see out of. He likes it!

It's the 2.4l 4 cylinder, but it's got some pep in it's step with the manual tap shift option. I leased this car ( first time for me ) because I don't put miles on cars and I don't keep them very long either. We'll see how that works out, but I really like the car.

2.4l ecotec is a good engine. I'm a huge fan on the malibu's with the brownish red leather interior.

Xm radio and OnStar.....I am wondering if anyone keeps them after the trial deal is done?

IS it really worth it?

You traded in 2 cars on a lease? how the hell does that work??? I leased my civic with $0 down.

IS it really worth it?On XM ,I used to have it but cut it out when I was cutting extra expenses.
If you threaten to leave you'll get a better deal. My Father in law got a lifetime deal, I forgot how much though.

Never had onstar
