Wait do you have a neon engine in a PT cruiser? Or is that just how they were built?

It's not a tiny car and it definitely doesn't have a tiny engine. Just depressing it costs me $130 for a full tank of fuel. Oh well at least I have free unlimited health care and generous welfare system I'd say that outweighs the taxes.

I've heard that the PT Cruiser uses a Dodge Neon v4 engine.
Anyways, it's a 2.4L piece of shit that takes forever to shift (stupid automatic bullshit) but I can't complain too much, since it was given to me for free.
Also, the MPG is about 15 mpg in the city (kill me) and about 24 mpg on the highway.

An automatic isn't a real car. You're not actually driving you're just... steering.

Compared to most other cars in the states, it's microscopic.

lol, you're a transmission snob. My car is an auto but it gets from point A to B so who cares?

I try to emulate the feel of a manual by letting off the gas as I shift from 1 to 3 (the only choices are 1, 3, D, N, R and P), but it just isn't the same. It still shifts at a rotten time and I have little control over it. Sucks being used to a manual and driving automatic.
