    That list is skewed as fugg anyway. I love our Altima, but the Hyundai Sonata is kicking it and the Accord and Camry's asses in sales at the moment. Any list that doesn't have the Sonata at the top of family sedans isn't a credible list imo.

    Here's a list that looks a little more accurate.
    LINK:Best Affordable Midsize Cars - Best Cars & Trucks - U.S. News Rankings and Reviews

    As far as the Avalanche being the "best" truck of the year clearly shows how biased this list is. Consumer Reports is full of shat if they think the Avalanche should be considered the best truck from what's out there to pick from. Hell not many people are even buying Avalanches anymore. Edmunds has the Ram, then the F150 followed by the Tundra as the best trucks of 2011 so far. So it's safe to say most "best of" list are made of other people's opinions rather then accurate facts.

    Not the case these days, Kia is coming up fast. The Kia plant here in Georgia just hired a shat ton of people to just keep up with production. The only fault I have with Kias at the moment is their resale value is still crap. I suspect that will change real fast though. I hate to admit it, but America better take notice of the new Kia's and Hyundai's. They're selling a lot of car for a little price.

    Yeah yeah, but the most of the money goes back to Korea. :jester: My Altima was built in Smyrna Tenn, but it's still a Jap wagon. :jester:

    They build the Hyundai Sonata in Montgomery Alabama.
