    Your world is different than mine. The nearest Mitsubishi is 65+ miles away. My backyard is 72 acres of woods. I own a Mirage, because I like spending my money on other stuff.

    Tell Geico you do uber and they wont touch you with a 10ft pole in NY.

    We have 3 mitsu dealers in Edmonton. There's three in Calgary 3 hrs away but other than that there might be a few scattered around the province. But unless you live in a major city, you're probably gonna have a trek to find a dealer.

    My insurance is cheap, I usually don't own anything worth putting collision on so my rates are usually don't change much. I do have fire,theft and vandalism on everything though. I figure if I'm do something stupid enough to be at fault and wreck my vehicle I'll either fix it, or part it out if I'm not gibbled or dead. I should pick up a few more dash cams. Around here if someone hits you and they don't speak english, they'll have their entire family roll up with a fleet of yellow cabs at the scene blaming you within 5-10 mins. Gotta cover your anus.

    My nearest dealer is in Hamilton, about a 100 mile round trip. ATM I won't use them unless its warranty work. The next nearest dealer is a 160 mile round trip.

    I thought I heard somewhere that you can’t ride share with a Mirage. How’s it work for you with such a small car? Do people know that they are getting a ride in such a small car? Any fun stories of people not liking your Mirage? Or of not having enough room for someone or their luggage?

    Speaking of dash cams I had a nice triple setup in my very first 2014. It got all buggered up in the crash and I've not taken the time to re-create it in my 2017.
    Zero, 2014 ES Plus 5MT, written off but not forgotten.
    Zero II, 2014 SE, 5MT, climate She's HOME now!

    Mirage owners look at the world differently than everyone else, but in a better way

    After 300 rides only had one complaint. The guy decided he was going to get all "thug life" on me, not return my good morning and insult my ride calling it a go cart. I cancelled the ride and kicked him out. Other than that Ive only had to cancel 2 rides because it was 4 people and Ill only allow up to 3 in my car. 3 adults, luggage, no problem. The engine responds to all the added weight giving you more juice IMO.
