My parents have owned a 1968 plymouth sport fury, a 1994 dodge caravan and a 2003 ram 1500. All three were very good vehicles and never gave us any trouble. I trust the chrysler products because i have never been let down by one. see full Dodge Charger review

Dodge makes a great product, but when something goes wrong, they need to remember that customer satisfaction is what leads to repeat business. see full Dodge Charger review

Although the "zoom-zoom" campaign ended, Mazda still enjoys a performance- and excitement-orientated reputation- deservedly so. The RX-7, RX-8 and Miata, and the historical use of rotary engines established that, from the beginning. Professional reviewers often called the Protege5 a "5-door Miata," and it is accurate- this is a zippy, fun-to-drive little car, as much fun as a Miata is (with the top up, at least,) and for a smaller car, cargo room is great. This was my first Mazda-branded vehicle (Ford Rangers and Mazda B-Series trucks were build on the same assembly line, the only differences being cosmetic) and it will probably NOT be my last. see full Mazda Protege review

Both the real-world reputation, and that Mazda is active in motorsports (except Nascar, but I HATE Nascar, so that exclusion is a plus for me.) see full Mazda Protege review

It is not a re-badged Ford but rather a Japanese built Mazda. see full Mazda Protege review

Many other car companies come with a community behind them as well. The Mazda community is just amazing, the amount of immature bragging compared with other car companies is invisible, people are all about helping each other out. It is truely amazing. see full Mazda Protege review
