I've owned the car for 4 days and haven't been running it at all because the radiator was cracked.
Today was literally me checking it.

Legacy-based. A proper, useful wagon rather than a hatchback that's barely better than a sedan.

>implying I didn't completely drain it
I put 1.5gal of coolant in and could not fill it any further, the thing was drained as completely as one can do it.
