2007 Chevrolet Malibu

I leased a Malibu Maxx from 2006 to 2008 and absolutely loved that car. I could fold down my back seats and the passenger front seat and get my kayak in and close the hatch. If I have to carry more than one, I use the luggage rack. The car rode nice, accelerated wonderfully on the highway, and was good in snow and bad Michigan weather. Best of all though was the gas mileage: 36 on the highway and 30 city driving. It was fantastic on gas. Three teens did not like riding in the back. I may have downsized a bit early for my kids. But it was fine for two in the back. Heated seats and moon roof were nice extras. I had planned to turn in my leased and buy a new Malibu Maxx, but another poor GM decision - they quit making it.
