I love this car!

I have NO complaints with the Cruiser that warrant criticism. I have owned many cars and am now retired. My Cruiser is a delight to drive. Very nostalgic - a SPECIAL car amongst so many "cookie cutter" designs on the road with little or no individuality.

Good car for the money

Solidly built vehicle with a well designed interior. With the 5 speed, this car has plenty of zip. Chrysler intended the Cruiser to have the 5 speed as it's primary transmission, as it fits with the styling. The auto is for those who want the look but just can't figure out how to drive a stick. It's a given that an automatic will have less power and lower gas mileage. That said, this car is a great deal if you get the base model with a few add ons (power locks, windows, CD).

They suck

These cars are known for major engine failures in many ways. they break randomly and to fix anything the whole engine has to come out. before buying ask yourself why. only redemption comes with good acceleration and an appealing interior.
