    Should I buy a 2012 Honda Civic Si or a Scion tC?

    First off, I am 40 years old. I don't plan on racing my car around, lowering it, or any of that stuff. I am just looking for a RELIABLE commuter that isn't so bland. I have looked at ALL of the other makes and decided on one of these two cars. Just wondering if the extra 2-3k for the Honda would...

    I'm thinking about buying a Toyota 4Runner?

    I'm thinking about buying a 4th generation Toyota 4Runner. My budget is around 16k. When looking on cars.com etc... I am finding that most of the ones I find have 100,000k miles plus. I know that these trucks run for ever when taken care of, but would I be expecting a bunch of maintenance costs...

    Toyota Tacoma 4wd vs. PreRunner in snow?

    I am thinking about buying a used 2004 Toyota Tacoma crew cab pickup truck. I live in an area where it can snow a lot. Do I really need the 4wd version, or does the PreRunner 2wd get by alright with the high ground clearance. I used to own a 1987 Nissan 2wd truck that would do somewhat ok with 4...

    Should I buy a Chevy Cruze or a Scion TC?

    First off, I don't want a Civic or a Corolla. I know the Scion engine is the same one they put in a Camry, so I'm pretty sure it is reliable. On the other side of the stick, I know nothing about the Chevy Cruze's engine. I don't have to have 4 doors either. Which one should I get & why? Thanks!

    Any opinions on the 2011 Jeep Patriot?

    I have been looking for a utilitarian vehicle for a while now and hadn't even considered the Jeep Patriot until now. I sat in one and it felt great. I didn't drive it because I didn't feel like getting involved with the salesman quite yet. Any input on reliability of past Patriot models would be...

    I am interested in buying a Honda Pilot and can't seem to find any information on what year and models offered an Mp3/iPod input. Also, if they offered it, which trim levels was it offered in? Thanks! I have had 2 FM transmitters and the both suck. Sorry.

    Thinking about buying a 2004 Honda Pilot?

    I am thinking about buying a 2004 Honda Pilot EX-L with 55,000 miles on it. Are there any problems to look out for? They are asking $13,000 firm. I have just found that most of the 2003 and some of the 2004 models were recalled for bad transmissions. I'll have to call Honda with the VIN number.

    Is the real time 4 wheel drive on the Honda Element worth getting?

    I am considering buying a Honda Element soon (yes, I like them) and wondered if the "Real Time 4 Wheel Drive" was just a bunch of hype. I know that Subaru has a much better AWD system, but I am probably going to still get an Element. Should I spend the extra money and get the AWD or is it over...
