They put an EcoBoost engine in the Ecosport, but the two “Eco"s aren't pronounced the same way. How's that for infuriating?

You make some very interesting and valid points, however...

Any time a CL ad includes a photo with a well groomed pupper in the background I automatically assume the vehicle (or trailer) was well taken care of as well.

I want to tow this behind a Toyota UHaul box truck that I also want to own for weirdo, jalop reasons.

That took all of 23 minutes, and that damned unrecognizable rusty wreck was even missing the side trim... Well done, Jalopnik hive mind!

Hides four Smarts under a tarp.

There is pretty much no use case in the US where a Fit wasn’t a better answer than the iQ was.

Sold Toyotas for a decade, wowza ( Did I mention one of the top Venza salespeople in Canada, ask me about it )... let me tell you guys about ‘Scion’

Tanks for this post.

But could an F-150 take on a WW2-era Chrysler M3?

This is good Oppo.

Man, this thing would be killer if it had an el Manuel. Even with the bore-matic transmission it’s a pretty slammin deal at 20k. They should stuff a turbo engine and a 6 speed and sell as the Kia Rio dios mio.

Seriously? Four equally sensible and viable options?
