I have a friend who is in his 2nd jeep wrangler unlimited within 12 months. His first was bought back by Chrysler and now his 2nd has the same, incurable problem. My Honda Ridgeline has been flawless in reliability, comfort, towing and off road at 33k. see full Honda Ridgeline review

Hondas have a reputation for durability and value. This is our third Honda. Those before had no problems beyond routine maintenance. You take care of a Honda and it will last. see full Honda Ridgeline review

It is a true multi-purpose truck. Rides / handles like a sedan, but carries cargo like a medium truck. see full Honda Ridgeline 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

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
