- Offbeat Oddity The RAV4, and I say this as someone who currently owns a 2014 CR-V. My aunt has a 2018 CR-V that has had a lot of electrical issues, and I don't trust the turbo and CVT to last as long as Toyota's NA engine and 8-speed automatic. Plus, the RAV4 looks sportier and doesn't have the huge front overhang.
- Offbeat Oddity I'd go with Mazda, especially now that there's no more cylinder deactivation on the 2024 NA motor. It's around $4-5k less than the Toyota with similar equipment, and I think reliability is probably very close between them.Regarding reliability, hasn't this generation of RAV4 taken a hit? I know it's not rated as highly in Consumer Reports, and there were teething issues during the first few years. I'm surprised it's not mentioned in more reviews- even Jack Baruth's. I'm sure the bugs have been worked out by now, though.
- Peter I want a self driving red ragtop 1958 Plymouth Fury. Just like the car in the movie Christine.
- Mgh57 Doesn't seem like this tech is ready for prime time.
- Nathan The Ram is the most boring looking of the full size trucks, kind of like a Tundra.If they cancel the Ram Classic, I hope a full resign makes the Ram at least look interesting.

What are you people smoking?! This thing is a DOG! It is almost as ugly as the current Sebring!! Look, I love(d) Chrysler. It has always been my favorite brand. My first car was a Chrysler. But geez, even I gotta draw the line. This thing is just ugly. Compared to the Atlantic concept from a few years back, or even the Imperial concept from about 2-3 years ago, this thing is a real let-down. But does it really matter? I suspect Chrysler will be going the way of Olds and Plymouth in the next few years.
Wow. That is one fantastic looking automobile. Like others have mentioned, give it an interior beyond Caliber-caliber - and - shore up reliability issues, and I'd buy it. I wasn't even sure if there was a way to update the C-line, but this is a beautifully executed design.
