Had to drive out of state to get it, and then drove it 5 hours home in a torrential downpour.
I like everything about it so far--31 mpg yesterday, Sirius (which I've never wanted or needed until now), the sound system, the intuitive controls, and the comfort. I really hesitated to buy due to the stories about transmission issues, but I experienced no problem whatsoever in fairly treacherous conditions on a prolonged initial drive, so maybe they've been solved? I'm optimistic.
I traded out of a Jeep Patriot, and I have to say, there isn't a single aspect of the Patriot I'd take over the Renegade. I'm glad I took the plunge, and glad I found this forum.
