I'm done lurking....

Hi everyone,

I've been lurking on this site for a few weeks now. I'm in the middle of switching to a new job that would require about 90 mile drive one way, so i was looking for something better than my current car on gas. I currently driving a 2008 Dodge Charger SXT AWD that can barely get 19/20 mpg on the highway. Of all the cars I've been looking at, the cruze is definitely the one I want. IMO, it has the best styling in its class. So I'm looking to a pick up a used 2013 LT2 within the next week.

I plan on keeping this car for a long time, so I was wondering if there any things I should be considering doing to the car once I get it. One thing I've read from lurking is to get an oil catch can. Anything else? Once I get it, I'm planning on getting an Injen CAI and the Trifecta tune for it. If there's one gripe I have about the cruze, is that I think it's a little underpowered. Since I'll be coming from a V6 that I also had some mods done on, I'll definitely be getting the tune to appease my right foot.

Another question I have is, has anyone ever done a conversion of their side marker lamps to turn signals, or made it work as both? I've searched but maybe my search wasn't extensive enough.

Thanks for the replies. I was looking at the Eco, but I found a good deal by a private seller on this LT2, that's why I'm biting on it. It has 12K miles and I was able to bargain it down to $11300. From what I've seen on autotrader and cars.com, it seems like a good deal. Besides I don't know if there's any performance difference between the LT and the Eco, but I'm all for more performance. Which ever one I get will still be getting way better gas mileage than what I'm currently driving.
thats a really good deal.
