About 5800 total miles so far since August. It needs rear shocks, not leaking but slam wore out originals. Tranny cooler lines are not leaking anymore. Sinatra will be 23 years old in a couple of months, amazing how many original parts are still on this car and working just fine. I still have trouble running the gas tank lower than the empty mark, but the most I ever put in the tank was 3 gallons less than the owners manual says it will hold.
Last tank was almost two weeks between fills, didn't go anywhere yesterday. With gas at $2.479 it's actually cheaper per mile than the Fiesta was with higher gas prices. Even in freezing temperatures the temp gauge is showing it to be mid gauge in just over a mile.
The monthly depreciation on the Fiesta would have already paid for the Sentra ($83.33 X 4). Even written off totally including everything except fuel it's about 20 cents a mile.
I did install a cheap warm air intake ($5.98) which seems to be helping with the typical cold weather mileage hit.
