I am a big fan of the Toyota family-- including Lexus. The cars are the so reliable and never have any problems. What about you?!

I drive an Olds silhouette mini van - I love it.  In winter it has heated seats.  It remembers 2 drive seat positions.  I hope it outlivesme.

I have the La Crosse and I couldn't be happier.  I do an awful lot of driving.  In this first year I already have over 35,000 miles.  I previously had a century and now my husband drives it, and it has well over 200,000 miles and still going.

I have a 2005 For Explorer and have to say not 100% happy with it. for some reason the designer must have been drinking to even think of putting vents down where your feet are isn't to bed if only you can shut them off or close them.. and believe me I have tried, and they also took the air vents and didn't space out them out far enough from the steering wheel..The wheel gets more ac than I do..and has anyone else noticed the seats are hard. even the ones in the back.. not a very comfortable ride at all..other than that it's an ok suv

I have an 08 Honda Civic EX.  I love the gas mileage and it is so sporty.  I get compliments on it everywhere I go.  And everyone I work with thinks it is an expensive car.  But it's not.

A 1999 VW Passat wagon that has been great overall. We've had to put some work into it, but nothing compared to some imports. And we've got a great local mechanic who doesn't overcharge us even though it's a German car.

Owned a 1984 Toyota Corolla (purchased new) that was eventually traded in for a 1995 Chevy Astrovan due to too much $$$ in frequent, very expensive, major repairs.  Although I would've preferred to keep the van, rising gas prices have forced me to trade the Astrovan in for a more economical 2007 Chevy Aveo.

I own a Pontiac Vibe.  It's the best all around vehicle for the money.  It has unbelievable amounts of leg and head room for big and tall people both in the back and front seats.  My husband is over 6 ft. tall and he still has space left for his legs and head!  It also gets 34 mph consistently, no matter where I drive or if I have the air conditioner running.   It's small and easy to get into parking spaces but yet, when the back seats are folded down, it's large enough to lay a 26" schwinn 15 speed bicycle and close the hatch.   In fact, if one had to, they could sleep back there!  

The Pontiac Vibe is also made with Toyota parts and is identical to the Toyota Corolla but with lots more room and a better price!  When it's time to purchase a new car, I will buy another one.  It comes in standard,  all wheel drive or sports model.  I own the standard for great gas mileage although some friends purchased the all wheel drive and they still get 27 mph. and get around in the snow. 

Hope this information has been proved helpful!

I have had my Subaru Forester since 1999 and it has 136,000 miles on it.  It has been a great car and wonderful for hauling things.  The gas mileage is usually 24 mpg. which is not great these days.  Subaru seems to be a reliable, if not luxurious, brand.

I drive an 04 Buick Lesabre.  Fantastic on gas (33 MPG hiway)) and all the comfort you would expect from a Buick.  I get better mileage than most of my coworkers who drive Toyota's and Honda's.  2 of them have purchased Buicks since seeing what mine get for mileage.  We are all happy American car owners!

1999 Toyota Tacoma Ex.Cab. 

Great little truck, but the catalytic converters are in high demand by thieves for the recyleable metals that they contain.  Had mine stolen about 1.5 months ago and the dealer wanted $822 just for the replacement plus labor!  Found a local muffler shop that had them MUCH cheaper.

I guess I'm a die hard, a Tahoe, and an Avalanche. I just couldn't get rid of them.
