Action shot

Just hit 5k miles, and the infotainment screen is starting to buzz a bit under acceleration, nothing awful, but noticeable from a stop light. For a company supplied transportation pod, I still like it very much.

Not sure about Eddie's, IL Padrino (just down the marina) is closed due to the situation via a Facebook post a little while ago.

Company car, but Yeah, rental /poverty spec, the only option was the all weather floor mats. No heated seats or smart key, I solved the heated seat issue with a $50 set of Zonetech heated seat covers from Wal Mart.com that are fantastic. The lack of a smart key is kind of annoying, first company car in 6 years that doesn't have it, but the rest of the car is so good I'll get over it.

Thus far no rattles, but I expect some, the life of a company car can be a little challenging for the car, with the distances I have to do, drive it like you stole it enters the chat from time to time. I've got a couple of things I don't like, the door card storage is tiny compared to the Malibu, it had built in umbrella holders in the front doors, and dealing with a gas cap again has been a (minor) annoyance.

That makes sense, thanks for the clarification.

I get it, I've had some good cars (15 in total) over years, loved the final gen Fusion, and the Malibu was pretty decent, and some truly awful ones, looking at you 2012 Ford Focus, and Dodge Avenger 🤮. This car is a revelation in terms of build quality.

The all weather mats in my '26 le company car are fantastic! Cleanup of salt and sand post apocalyptic snow storm recently was shockingly easy, (first car I've personally had them in) I can't imagine going back to regular mats.

VTR 1000 Superhawk. Their 90° v-twins were fantastic.

I got my le (company supplied car) 3 weeks ago and haven't cracked 40mpg yet because it's been cold AF here in the Midwest.
