Yes, I still want to add a hitch to this car.

I still haven't upgraded the interior so that all the door interior panels and seats match. (Been busy with other things.)

Overall, the car drives well. The heated steering wheel is really nice in the winter.

I like how the back seats fold down dead flat (when the butt cushions are removed.)

Kinda wish it was a different color. Off-silver is a very blah color.

Love the power locks, timer feature for charging, leather seats, heated seats, good navigation, great stereo (rips CDs.), and "Sport Mode".

The few things I don't like about it are similar to the negatives of the Prius.
Some bad sight-lines. Thick A-pillars. Weirdly slanted windshield. Poor visibility out the back.

Overall so far, it's been a very good car at a great price.

Pretty good cargo room too. I can fit a Nissan Leaf drivetrain in the back!
