Did a search and didn't find this anywhere so I hope its not a re-post.

Thanks for the link, I hadn't seen that one yet.

 

Read the comments under the article - they are very interesting. I spent a while checking those out.

 

I just read those comments and let me say those guys are idiots.

1. Everyone has a different preference in the car they want.
2. they haven't driven the car
3. they love ford, dodge, and chevys. One compared the fit to a cobalt!
4. they believe buying a foreign car is the same as being a traitor. wtf?

 

Well, the name of the paper is U.S.A. Today, and a large portion of the population of that country is extremely patriotic, and make 'Made in America' choices. This paper caters to those persons with those feelings. Nothing wrong with that whatsoever. Their business is selling papers to their customers.

However, when they can't get the facts straight, or only tell one side of the story, it becomes a completely different issue. One can always use a sub-set of facts to make their point, while leaving out a lot of relevant data.

It seems that a lot of automobile reviews are written by people who are not 'car aficionados'. Consider the source, and don't dwell on the inaccuracies.

Remember, opinions are like @$$holes: everybody has one.

 

Wow I really didn't like this review or the comments.

Constant refilling despite good fuel economy? I drive over 400 miles a week and only fill up once. I'd say that's damn good and I don't think the majority of people drive that much.
