The 5 is a great economical vehicle for a small family. We down-sized from a mini van becasue both of my kids are of driving age so rarely do we have 4 passengers. It is great to haul whatever you need; I have filled it with camping gear several times. That leads me to the only real complant I have about the vehicle; when loaded it really lacks power for highway travel. This is only a small percentage of the time we use it so it is a fair trade for the 24mpg we get driving around town. Fun to drive, handles well and sharpe looking...go fo it.
