Picked up a black Limited 2WD with Sunroof at MSY last weekend off the ES.

It was great for my 400 mile weekend trip where I averaged 24 mpg mostly sticking to US highways with a little bit of interstate so I managed to got the EPA highway number.

The sound system was probably the best I've tried in recent memory and the front seat was exceptionally comfortable. Power folding mirrors, heated rear seats, and remote start were features I'm not used to with cars on ES. Biggest gripe was the large blind spots created by the base of the A pillar. They should have make it like a fusion the side view mirror mounted below the window and putting a spotter window in. Those blind spots can easily hide a pedestrian.

Those 20" wheels looked great too. Although I was surprised they were 20's because they looked smaller than that to me.
