Wow its funny going down the list that Jags and mercedes and escalades are all highly unreliable! While Hondas and Toyotas are most reliable. Really shows you are just buying for the name, than buying for a quality product.

The 4runner is in the "least" section, and that's a toyota. So, even toyota can't make perfect cars.

My manager's husband is a mechanic and he says Mercedes Benz are the most unreliable cars they get. Not only is it hard as hell to fix them, the expensive a$s parts are soooo complicated that they will most likely fail in the future.

So why are Benzs so expensive? the Luxury and the NAME, but other then that I'm starting to think its BS.

"Supirior German engineering" ::jerking off motion::

But I would most likely get a Benz over almost any car if I had the money

Hahaha - this is too funny. This doesn't surprise me, look at the left column, than check the right column. Almost all of the cars/trucks in the right column are domestic. Almost all in the left are imports.......Just proves a point that GM, Ford, and Dodge suck....

Wow... I'm glad we have two Civics! I haven't had ANY problems with them...

As for the Toyota being on the least side, that's probably why they dropped the V6 4Runner.
