Interesting...
Where's nissan?
I guess I'll have to trade in my VX for a Sportage.
I have to think it's that low because Isuzu doesn't produce passenger cars in the US anymore. Probably shouldn't have even been an option in the survey. You can imagine how the question would sound:
"What do you think of Isuzu?"
"Who?"
"Isuzu - they used to produce their own trucks years ago, then started selling rebranded GM stuff for awhile before going out of business in the US. So what do you think of the quality of this brand that couldn't survive?"
Good point.
It feels good to be bad:evil:

Sorry to be so negative today, bad commute. It's my opinion that everyone is out to get me today.

Well, we didn't go out of business though. In the other hand, we actually where the smart ones of all and bought back the rights from GM left 1-2 years before the economy hit a plunged and the auto industry got a sucker punch in the gonads. So really we should have a separate list for those that are smart unique and avoided humiliation in the media and the public eye. Isuzu is Numero 1, :dance::clap::dance::clap::dance::clap::dance: :bgwo:
That's exactly what I thought when I saw the article.Quote:

;puke2; Looks like a pretty useless survey. Check out the difference between Ford & Mercury. Scores 144 vs 14.
Last I checked, Mercury = Ford + standard leather seats
Mercury drivers = old folks who've been buying Grand Marquis' for years, Ford buyers are a much larger cross-section. So you can discount the Mercury ranking as it's clearly biased.
This is why polls always say "Results not scientific."
I personallly believes that those surveys are just one good excuse to sell their magazines,nothing else.
Although isuzu is out-of-business isuzu remains present due the large amount of their vehicules on the road today,any where your turn you can spot an isuzu,rodeo,trooper,amigo,etc and of course our beloved vehicross.
So as to me those surveys are just that....surveys
:laughing::laughing: Thats something we can all agree on...Quote:

Or anyone driving a Prius.Quote:
