they are very good daily drivers, just don't expect them to be the quickest off the line or to get good gas milage. Most people including myself get about 200 miles out of the tank in city driving, highway driving i can push 300 miles. as far as maintenance goes, change the oil every 3k miles, check the oil level every 1500 miles because the engine does consume oil and you might need to add about 1/2 a quart every 1500 miles like i do and most people. When you get new tires don't get the stock tires, they are too over priced.

Any other questions send me a PM and I will help you best as possible.
