...This year's study asked 76,000 owners 90 days after purchasing their 2010 model-year cars "how gratifying their new vehicle is to own and drive." The answer, for the first time since 1997, was that the domestic brands were more "appealing" as a whole than the imports (the domestics earned a score of 787 on a 1,000-point scale – 13 points greater than the imports)...

It's better then....nevermind....

I suppose I could also say I've yet to meet a man that could make me smile half as much as my car does

(or one that could handle the fact that my car has more balls

)

I received a couple of those J D power surveys and I could'nt find anything wrong with my car to bitch about!

I'm surprised the Jeep is rated so high... mine is a piece of crap. But good for Chevy... they're racking up those awards and high rankings.
