What car do you drive?

Fine. Have some more pics.

I am currently driving a 2003 Mercedes Benz ML350. I have, unfortunately, put $3800 into the car this year; so, I am selling it. I intend to upgrade to a reasonably-priced, reliable, late-model, mid-sized sedan, but I do not know much about them. Do any of automobile afficianados have any recommendations? (DSH has already recommended the Honda Civic.)

@ oxymoron - Prove your knowledge. Guess my avatar before looking back on the pages.

Honestly, I don't know. Although, I do drive a car. It's a 2004 Camry. Not bad cause I got for free. *waiting for insulting post*

I tried to argue the American ares are no good and was told they actually are. Why do they get so a bad wrap then?

Three pages of garbage and not a post with picture of what one actually drives. I guess those who don't own a car just pull info off Google and just rant nonsense. Mine is buried back in one of the pages, thru searching might give an idea what this Thread is supposed to be about.

Its my fault, I just thought it would be more appropriate to put my original post here rather than another thread, seeing as it is car related.

I hate it when a car gets a bad wrap.

I had an American car - a Jeep Grand Cherokee - in the late 1990s and early 2000s. It was terrible. It always had annoying little problems, but as soon as the warranty expired, everything that could go wrong with it went wrong. As I understand it, the quality of American cars from the late 1970s until fairly recently was pretty abysmal, and I think that a lot of American manufacturers are still struggling with the reputational damage from that period.

It's "rap". And like anything, these things go in cycles. Ford in particular has done quite a lot to improve their product in the last 5 or so years. I'm not too fond of Chevy, but I'm familiar with the Ford Fusion and it's quite a nice vehicle and would make a great commuter.

80s and 90s US cars had bad maintenance issues. However, the last decade or so they have been great.
