Welcome to the site, BurtGauge! Don't worry we'll cut out the eating raw eggs part of the hazing but other parts I can't make any promises about. You may have to read all of the most boring posts on the history of the site (i.e. my posts about what the Big Three need to do to get back on track[sm=pcwhack.gif])![sm=sleeping.gif] Just kidding, we're a friendly bunch over here.

I'm sorry but I can't resist the hijacked issue at hand. CR pays more attention to the interior and fit and finish than they do to the actual mechanical issues with cars. Their interior has improved, but their mechancial issues are still a problem. A friend had a 2003 KIA Rio and they had three transmission problems within 33K miles as well as some electronic issues.
