2005 Chrysler PT Cruiser from North America - Comments

Have only had the car for 2 months, so can't comment yet, but it feels stable.

I love this car. It drives and parks like a compact car, but has a lot of sitting and storage space. After I drove my new PT Cruiser for 2 weeks, I sat in my old hatch back and could not believe how squished I felt.

It drives very well so far and seems to have a good amount of power. Gas guzzles a bit more than I'd like, about 25-31 miles per gallon, but the space and larger engine is the compromise.

I would definitely buy another one, and hope to trade in for the convertible one day.

I am curious as to how you get 25-31 mpg out of your Cruiser. I have yet to break 23, though mine is new.

I, also am very curious to how you get up to 31MPG in your PT Cruiser.

I have the 2003 model and was getting between 23 and 24mpg.

Then I put a K&N air filter in it and bumped the MPG up to 25 and 26MPG. But not as high as you are getting.

Cherish the PT Cruiser you purchased because yours is getting very good gas mileage compared to myself and others I've read about.

Kinda amazing.

I drove from Oklahoma to Michigan and followed trucks and got 550 miles on the first tank of gas. I know that I will never see that kind of mileage again! Mine still gets about 28 on average though. Although it refuses to start occasionally.

My 2205 PT gets 26 mpg in town and 28-29 mpg on th highway.
