    You're not telling me anything new, I'll leave it to Tom to defend his brand.

    Same reliability issues could be pointed at the RX-8 by the way - those things eat engines almost as fast as they drink oil.

    Just giving you a hard time.

    This is my old Mitsu.

    Well, for what I have in mind. I am currently looking at these:

    I am waiting until mid-September to buy, so I can have a look at it and take it for a test drive to see if I like it...



    THIS is what I really want! But anything over 28k, I deem WAAAY out of the picture. Plus, Gill won't want to be riding the Harley ALL winter...



    Now I could afford one of these! I test drove it already and it was nice. 10yr/100k mi powertrain warranty is really appealing too. I would have to get used to being in a CAR again. I like sitting up high...I feel safer. But, if I could make it like its rally driving counterpart...hmmmmmm?

    Decisions, decisions...

    I really can't argue with the numbers. The sales are waaaay down.

    All I'm sayin is that I've had pretty good luck with the Eclipse. I usta have a 93 & still miss it. I'm still driving an 03 & wifey has an 04. The 92 3000GT (daughter's car) is still sitting in the driveway not running (it was a used car that had a lot of hidden abuse). I usually put about 200K miles on them before they retire.

    On the other hand, the 93 Toyota Land Cruiser is still running strong.

    I haven't owned my very first Ford product (RV) long enough to form any judgements concerning longevity but it seems to be a nice vehicle so far.

    I usta be a die hard Mopar fan but that was years ago.

    I really don't have a true loyalty to any one company. I just buy what feels right.

    Of course, the current Isuzu I own is the the best EVER!!!!

    I feel somewhat validated... someone else see the potential in the Juke...

    Seems as if you don't plan on doin' any hardcore wheelin', they would have a good balance of performance, style, cargo space, and best of all for today's gas prices... MPG.

    The Juke is based on the Versa, I think. I don't really see it being the size of the VX even. That's why I need to see it in person first. I haven't found any photos or videos with the Juke next to a person for size comparison. So we will see. I think it's going to be a mini SUV...

    I had a versa sedan, that thing is tiny, smaller thana civic. Good gas mileage though, and it had more rear seat room than my 06 Explorer.
