Used cars & brand reliability

That Dodge Ram model was probably made in Mexico 🇲🇽 🤣 Why no... of course it's not a cult!

Id have to see how the seat well is. I'm 6'4" so it comes down to how well my legs can handle the shape of the seat/ steering wheel/ etc... but thanks for the heads up!

I'm coming from a US viewpoint, which is problematic in its own right, but also there are nearly 3 cars for every 4 people in the US and over 90% of them are automatic It's not opinions it's facts 😅 Honestly most people driving automatic cars here probably explains why we are so bad at driving

It was “supposed” to be Pagoda Green, but came out a little more on the turquoise side. I was rear-ended and knew some “car guys” that gave me a great deal, so no complaints! It was a fun car!

Nice Chrysler

Fun fact: Its original name was Honda Fitta in the European market, but it was changed to Jazz because fitta is the word for a certain female body part in Norwegian and Swedish.

Can it really be "standard" if most cars today are automatic transmission? My first car I owned was a manual transmission, I only had it for a month before it got totaled from a rear end collision just when I had gotten good at it 😅😭

Haven’t driven an American made vehicle in 10 years. Not going back

All the best production cars are rally car inspired. Only exception I'm willing to grant is the r34 gtr & the 05 Ford gt.

They are Toyota for people that want something more exciting.

The Adventures of Ford Fairlane…

True. I recently had to replace my 2007 Fit with a Corolla hatchback, which is admittedly more comfortable for the driver but worse otherwise.

The Maverick. My wife's has only had one minor problem (Ford cheaps out on the 12V batteries & they have a tendency to fail if used hard; they replaced ours for free the next day) but they seem to love to give recall notices for stuff I've never dealt with. Still very worth it for the price we got.

Um dos melhores carros já feitos junto com o Civic, tô indignado

during my five-year career as an automotive journalist when people asked me for a reasonable, dependable used car my answer was almost ALWAYS "Honda Fit". they're god's gift among automobiles

Hello Honda - 15 yr old fit selling for EIGHT THOUSAND DOLLARS at a local dealer !!!

The Fit’s front end geometry was a dream for pedestrian safety tbh. Those giant flat GMCs are death machines.

I can't pin this one down. Even if this is actually a VW Group test mule the Eos was already out by this point.

My cup of tea, but looking for one is what led to me importing a CL1. They suffer badly from rot. The suspension on the non Rs isn't great, I imagine it wasn't a good base. As a performance car it's difficult to pick one over a RS Mégane considering the price, yet they feel better driven normally

I used to feel that way based on a Ford (Found On Road Dead) that I had years ago - a total lemon - but now we have a Ford C-Max Hybrid that my wife drives and loves. Of course they stopped making them *sheesh*

Some chuds in a Tesla totaled my 2008 Fit last year and I absolutely plan to get another as soon as I can

You're supposed to rate the quality of the car rather than the size of the weird cult.

i moved across the country with every important possession i owned crammed into my lil fit. only issue i had on that trip was my battery dying, but that wasn't the cars fault at all.

This proud owner of 2015 Fit approves this message.

Wow.... officially happy I dumped my Ford Focus!

When I moved up here last April, I traded in my Nissan for a 4WD Jeep.............best investment I ever made. 😀😀😀

i like how, by not using his name, you've circumvented everyone who has his name in their list of muted words godspeed, Honda Fit 🫡

I miss my old 2012 fit...

Also I totally get why nobody in this town has a Kia - every time it gets remotely cold my front window will not go down, so I'm fucked over during the exact weather that one would MUCH rather go to a drive thru than go inside.

I have long wanted to take a rolls Royce silver spirit and put like a Ford 7.3 diesel in it. For similar reasons I also love LS swapped 911s.

huh, you don't hear that very often.... definitely not the gruntiest engine or the most rock solid freeway cruiser, but they're great around town. Definitely need to be driven hard to get the most out of them, and best with a manual so you can wring every pony out of the engine

Or if you prefer a VW/German made car:

Oh that makes me feel better. I love my Fit but I always wonder how it will fare against every other gigantic SUV on the road.

yeah I just forgot they were capable of making hideous taillights and it kept reminding me of an Alero lol

Love the skunk stripe. Mine’s a 2020, so no stripe, but I do have the new bridge.

there is a racing series based upon the Fit. well it kinda expanded as a rules class but originally was specifically for the vehicle you described

And like, most gas engines don't sound better? Sure a specially tuned v8 sounds great, but a Toyota Corolla just sounds like a distressed cow.

Having owned an Explorer I doubt it's gone 235,000 miles on one tranny. 2 at least I'll guess.

Yup. You don't see a lot of passenger vehicles here from <2010 or so, but damn do we have a lot of ancient "light" pickups still running around.

Someone who must live nearby drives one bc I've seen it a lot lately. Before that, I had forgotten about the cyber truck's cousin.

It also had a god awful transmission 😀 (I had an 83) 82-84 almost killed the brand because none of the tricks to get good gas mileage out of 4000lbs worked

Yea, red hot like when you haven't changed your oil in 50,000 miles and your gauges and lights are screaming at you that your engine is about to fail.

I'd save up for a car if Volvo was still making 740.

Small capacity definitely where the market is at! Especially with that price tag & considering how expensive the car & used car market is at present.

A bit like the torch I won, a constant reminder of the BMW I nearly won!
