'02 Mazda Protege Update

[cs1992]

2002 Protege LX2.0L Auto42k on the odometerI have had this car for over 2 months now and although it's no Vibe, it is a fun car to drive. Likes: Handling, peppy acceleration, interior room is surprisingly largeDislikes: Radio reception is weak, road noise (from tires, wind isn't that bad), no remote trunk button on key transmitter, it's an auto!Miles per gallon has averaged about 28 with 50/50 city-highway driving. This is about 2 mpg less than my auto Vibe. Best mpg was 34.1 on a road trip...all interstate. Considering the sticker says 25/30 (Old EPA), I guess I'm doing OK. Overall, I am happy with the car, especially considering what i paid for it. It is certainly not as versatile a vehicle as the Vibe, but it is a decent ride.

Pretty low miles on it!
