I'm a Dodge truck fan - have had 3 (4 with the '91 Ram 2500 plow I got when my F-I-L passed). My '05 Dakota Laramie is the best one I've had with AWD. Only has 82k on it I bought used with 45k on it. Body is going to **** now so will look for some rust-free parts. After having a full size truck (97 Dodge) the Dakota accommodates 90% of what I need a truck for.
My 1st foreign car I decided to buy was an '07 Sonata 6 cyl with 12k on it that gave us great service. My daughter has had it for a few years pretty much trouble-free with over 180k on it now. Liked it enough to buy an '09 with just 10k on it wanting the 6 motor, last year this model came with the 6, and after some 40k miles it's been fine - compared to the dozen or more sedans we've had mostly Chrysler and a couple Olds (liking the Aurora's). But, the repairs required by comparison have been pretty much nil for the Sonata's and were inexpensive to buy. So - as an always American car person before, sure can't complain about the Sonata's.
