I disagree with number 1. The 2002-06 Nissan Altima was a strong competitor to the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord. I think this car was Nissan’s biggest seller during that time probably up until the Rogue came out.

Remember during the 2000s, it was DamlierChrysler/Cerberus plastic fantastic days.

I think one of the important aspects of an EV review that probably wasn’t available to you in this controlled-environment, short-term test is ease-of-use & speed of recharging. Often, a car company’s vision & dedication to EV tech is seen in things off the road/out of the driver’s seat: what are the differences in…

Worst car of the 2000s? It was an era in which we tried a lot of interesting things, not all of which worked. The Dodge Nitro was such an entry. It was hideous to look at. The interior was the worst of Daimler’s edict to cut 40% out of Chrysler development costs. It was big outside but felt small inside. I don’t know…

Dodge and Chrysler dominating this conversation with force, eh?

While true, at the time when it was introduced I remember the 3.5 model with the VQ was a solid package.

I do not like this at all. I think the reverse-cant Hoffmeister Kink, bulky pull-style door handles and full-height grille ruin it for me. Which is too bad, because the prior (original) 4 GC was a real looker.

There is no redeeming this design.

Owning people who bought: 

Those rear passenger windows pretty much tell the story of GM in the 80’s.

The flat brim, disposable income crowd are all driving Teslas.

Inb4 some salesman posts something about free capitalism and that it’s perfectly fine to charge 50k while providing no extra value whatsoever. Been eyeballing the C8 market and they’re INSANE. As Stingray markups begin to plateau I’m really sorry for those left holding the bag. 

VW has put some horrible wheels on the GTI the last few generations. I am looking to buy one in the next year or so. I would have some aftermarket wheels drop shipped to the dealer and have the original ones thrown into a furnce never to be seen again.

The worst factory wheel is anything that is larger than 20". I am less bothered by design and more irked by loss of sidewall.

How about Chevy putting a square peg in a round hole?

Tesla’s

So they are going to compete wih gamepass by being worse and more expensive?

The original nose was always the best thing about this car. The stacked headlights made it sadly generic. Superficial? Maybe, but if you’re collecting this kind of car, it’s all about the style. ND for me.

The best writers left, so they’ll just start reposting the good writers still on board. 

Yeah, a few grand didn’t make much difference when I got my 15-year adjustable-rate loan for my F-250 King Ranch.
