(35,082 posts)the most solid and reliable car on the market. He said their warranty was amazing and he rarely if ever tows them. Like I said, that was quite a while ago so I don't know if that's still the case. I will say that KIA really had an amazing turn around since when they debuted (I think in the late 90s?).
Charger or Challenger - Sexy but old news. Also, there are too many on the road and the cops around here will pull you over at least once every few months.
Toyota - Boring and way too many of them in my neck of the woods. I like to be somewhat unique.
Regarding Lincolns, I've always associated it with my grandparents, but lately the MKX is looking pretty good. I'm just afraid to take the plunge at this point. I've never had an American car and I've heard horrible things about how Ford nickels and dimes owners.
Jeeps are nice looking but I'm completely overwhelmed by all the models and trims. Too many options, too confusing.
Subarus / SAAB - boring and ugly.
VW and Volvo - Starting to have nice looking SUVs over the past 5 years. It would really be unique around here but I just haven't looked into it and I still have a lot of stereotypes in my mind about Volvo owners. I've never met a volvo owner IRL.
Personally I've been leasing Acuras (Hondas) for the past 10+ years and it's been OK so far. Of course, you never really know what will happen once you pass the 3 year mark. lol
