2008 4dr Wagon turbocharged 260hp 2.0L I4
5-speed manual FWD		 Critics may bash American brains when it comes to engineering, but owners have a different story to tell. I have had my issue with Asian vehicles and had lasting luck with domestics, so I use my own experiences to guide my mechanical judgement. see full Chevrolet HHR review

4-speed automatic FWD		 GM has had some bad press lately-but quality at GM has improved substantially over the past 5 years or so- and with a 5 year 60,000 power train warranty (I am at 29000 miles), I feel covered. see full Chevrolet HHR review

2013 4dr Sedan turbocharged 140hp 2.0L I4 Diesel
6-speed automated manual FWD		 It's been interesting to see the mixed reactions I get when people learn that I bought a VW. I'm known for my research-minded ways when it comes to big decisions, so I think the reliability (or lack thereof) reputation that Volkswagen has caused people to be surprised by my purchase. But for as many horror stories that I've read or heard, I've also heard from many owners who swear by and love their VWs and have had minor to no issues. Given how in love with my car I am after just one week...I get why VW owners love their cars (but, I'll admit, I still have my fingers crossed that I won't be plagued with too many quirks or issues). see full Volkswagen Jetta review

2006 4dr Sedan turbocharged 100hp 1.9L I4 Diesel
5-speed manual FWD		 That people automatically assume that all VWs are unreliable just because they had problems with their cars in the late 90s/early 00s. The new Jetta and Rabbit are MUCH better than they used to be. The TDIs especially are very reliable. see full Volkswagen Jetta review
