Introducing the 2013 Nissan Rogue

I rented this car from a rental company down the street from me for my trip to Las Vegas. I was supposed to get an economy size car but there were non s when I went to pick it up on Friday afternoon. 

Idaho plates, that's what I got. 

Leg room and seat space seemed good. I liked the pockets in the back of the driver and passenger seats. 

Sport button. Didn't make a difference it seemed when it was turned on. Had to re-turn it on every time I got back in the car. 

These vents were able to spin 360*. I liked that. 

Storage space for sunglasses and that tiny hole in the right? Had a weird orange light that was very dim. Only came on at night. Not sure what it was for. 

I'm a fan of the built in light here. Handy. 

I like the auxiliary port always. Probably because my current car doesn't have one built in. The big round button near the top in the middle - this was the volume. My hand could never find it unless I was looking. I think I'm just used to where mine is at (left) on my car. 

There was a lot of information in that middle box about gas mileage and apparently it tells you how many miles you can go before you have to get gas. Didn't discover that until after the trip though. Darn! 

Overall I did not care for this car. I thought it should have gotten better gas  mileage than it did. I think I got about 25mpg in the freeway. 

The main thing I didn't like was that I couldn't see over my right shoulder well at all. I had to sometimes ask my friend to make sure I was clear to move over or sit up a lot higher in my seat or rely in the side mirror.

I missed my Bluetooth connectivity and being able to control the radio from the steering wheel. Overall I would not buy this car in real life. Giving it a 4 rating (on a scale of 1-10) since my :-| face didnt show up for some reason.
