    Little Puddle Jumper
    2015
    Nissan
    Micra SR
    Silver
    Auto

    Bought the car new - 55 Kms on the odometer. Had a Pathfinder - let it go to someone that will use it the way it wanted to be used (trail camping in the mountains). The Micra gets great mileage, great performance in town and on highway.

    HA!! Back from my trip across Canada and got the winter tires on already. It was a fun trip - though my car has a blemish I'd rather forget... I backed into someone at a gas station and scraped up the rear right side of the bumper. Seriously though - it was great. No problems with the car at all (other than my own stupidity backing up). The fuel economy at trip end (roughly 14,500 kms round trip plus side excursions) was 6.0. Not bad for speed limit ++ and AC on for over half the trip.
    I'll post pics as soon as I have them all on the PC.

    Glad you anjoyed an (almost) trouble free trip! I love it when people take so-called 'city' cars on road trips like that. Thanks for the update and looking forward to a few pics.

    I never believed in "city" cars or "highway" cars. I've always owned compact/subcompact (except for my Pathfinder - I do miss it so...) and have been on road trips often with them. This was my first time going cross Canada though. Here is Puddle Jumper on the "Highway thru Hell", near the summit, on our way outbound. Name:  20160826_073820_HDR.jpg
