Well I picked up my rental today and they gave me a 2009 Nissan Sentra with CVT. This is not as bad as I thought it would be. Pics soon. Same color as Steve’s ---

LOL. I was able to get a used 2008 cvt as a rental a few months back. Not too bad for a econo box. I kinda wish I had folding seats…but I loose out due to the x beam in the trunk. lol. ---

I rented a new Sentra over Christmas and had it for a week while I was in Banff. I didn’t mind it but for where I need the seat positioned to drive it comfortably the ENORMOUS A pillar ended up being a real issue for me…I could never buy that car. For my GF who is a foot shorter it wasn’t a problem. Tall people beware! ---

Problems is a bit of an overstatement. It is just a PITA to keep looking around it. Perhaps 6’4" sits in a slightly different spot than a 6’1" guy. (insert shruggy emoticon guy here) ---

She’s white again? lol Anyway they couldn’t repair the tire so I said I wasn’t going to drive it around on a spare. So anyway they gave me a 2009 Nissan Altima. Now this freaking thing is sweet and the 2.5L doesn’t feel underpowered at all. And it also has smaller A - Pillars for Dave :thumbup: [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/my-new-sweet-ass-altima-formally-sentra/150295.md?page=2)
