Review Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=Poor

Pros: What do you like about 2008 Aston Martin DB9?
The body style is beautifully done. The interior is well appointed and the choice of leathers and hardware are great. This is elegance in motion. The car just sitting still captures your attention. Well Done.

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Aston Martin DB9?
The Aston Martin DB9 could use a bit more horsepower under its bonnet, just to remain competitive at these market prices. Perhaps our British gentlemen would consider supercharging the V12, this is only a suggestion.

Pros: What do you like about 2009 Dodge Avenger?
It's got good lines over all.
All around appearance is sporty looking.

Cons: How would you improve 2009 Dodge Avenger?
Interior looks like rubbermaid designed it. A lot of plastic.

I have an annoying noise coming from the rear when I go over bumps. It seems as though the dealer can not locate the noise. They have re-tightened everything back down in the rear, replaced the control arm, and the noise is still there.

I have a crunching sound coming from the front end. They replaced the strut, and that didn't solve it. They have to order a new control arm for the front.

I have a creaking noise coming from the driver side door panel when I stop and go. Mind u, this all started happening at 3,000 miles. Not sure if I purchased a lemon.

2009 Dodge Avenger Review:
I'm not sure how to rate this vehicle? My fiance has a 2008 with 20,000 miles, and it has not had one problem. Hers drives and performs a lot better than mine, and is a very solid car over all. My confidence level in mine has been "shaken" if you will.

Pros: What do you like about 2007 Suzuki XL-7?
Our XL7 has a great ride, all the power and we have gotten as much as 27 miles per/gal.

Cons: How would you improve 2007 Suzuki XL-7?
More colors available for interior.
The light tan was not a good color for us, it shows every thing.

2007 Suzuki XL-7 Review:
Have had problems with rackinpinnion steering for last 6 months. Dealer has had parts ordered, so far all we have been told is that they are on backorder. Dealer told us there are 4 others waiting on the same part. We really like the XL7 but not sure about buying something that parts are not more available. 6 months, still no parts.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Nissan Pathfinder?
The design of the body; looks rugged.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Nissan Pathfinder?
I don't own one for the moment, but looking to buy one but kinda doubtful. The only thing I'm concerned about is the vibration of the steering wheel (exceeding 60 miles on highway). Dealer has no idea how to resolve this issue.

Pros: What do you like about 2008 Ford F-150?
Rides like a dream with great turning radius.

Cons: How would you improve 2008 Ford F-150?
4.6L engine is grossly under powered especially for the high gas per mile ratio.

2008 Ford F-150 Review:
I love the truck but wish I would have got the 5.4L or new of some cheap easy tips to increase the HP of my 4.6L. The interior rocks but could use a couple extra storage places.

2010 Ford Ranger Review, by john

Review Guide: 5=Perfect; 3=Good; 1=Poor

Pros: What do you like about 2010 Ford Ranger?
I like the exterior styling is pleasing to the eye and the layout of the interior makes sense.
The 4.0L engine is responsive.
The XM satellite radio is awesome.
I like that the Ranger has stuck with the steering column shifter vice the floor mounted shifters in many trucks nowadays.
The four doors is a nice touch and makes access to the back of the cab a lot easier, although I wouldn't recommend the rear of the truck for carrying passengers.

Cons: How would you improve 2010 Ford Ranger?
Fuel economy is not that good for a compact truck, but it's a proven platform, so take the good with the bad.
I would like steering wheel mounted stereo controls, a standard sprayed on bedliner, or plastic bed.
An integrated GPS option would be nice as well.

2010 Ford Ranger Review:
This is my third for Ranger, I had a 1990, bare bones model, not even power steering, a 98 XLT 2.3, (FYI a 2.3 Ranger has absolutly no power and I would not recommend it unless you like loosing speed up even moderate hills) and now I have a 2010 XLT 4x4 extended cab.

I like the fact Ford has stayed true to what a compact pickup is. The exterior styling and interior styling are great. Although there could be some better finishing on some parts. The rear of my bumper is not even on both sides between the body, just like my 98, and some of the interior plastic has rough edges in obvious spots such as the doors.

Overall I think the Ranger is a great little truck for the $ on a proven platform.
