2000 Chevrolet Cavalier

About This Vehicle:

I test drove a 98 Mitsubishi something or other with an auto that shifted like a spoon through chili, then test drove this. Hated the reverse lockout, and the pedal feel really screwed me up after 7 years of driving early 80's Chevy 1/2 ton pickups. Otherwise, I really liked this car at the dealer, so I signed, got the salesman to fill the tank out of his own pocket, and have loved it more and more ever since.
