2013-2014Avenger R/T or SXT
2014 Dodge dart
2014 Chrysler 200 limited
2013-2014 Scion tC

Also please don't recommend brz or spirit r/t lol
I'm really just looking to help her eliminate a few choices from this list.

my mom has had multiple dodge avengers the last was like an 08 and the current is a 14. shes had nothing but good luck from them and theyve made multiple 8 hour trips from where we live to my sisters in st charles missouri with no problems. idk about the dart and 200 are they the same platform as the avenger or different? toyota always seems to be reliable cars,

What's important? Space? Fuel Economy? Reliability? what's the most she would want to pay?


I think there are a lot better options than most of what it listed.

Are you trying to say men don't like physically attractive cars? What kind of logic is that?

The we had 2 car dealers both joke about how they keep getting equinox's back because of recalls and problems.
Apparently its an ongoing joke among the dealerships here

those seem to be the regular ones. the sport has the v6 that was in the camaro when it returned its like 270hp or something. it was only offered in the sport. the only thing wrong with mine is the right rear tire sensor quits reading randomly on a 30 minute trip but its fine once the car has been turned off and restarted. its a non issue for me really its not affecting anything.

other than that its been a great vehicle and we even took it for a 10 hour trip to myrtle beach in july and it ran great all the way down and back.
