JH> her. The Chrysler products both notoriously had transmission problems   
   JH> early. Also have had two Subarus and the 2009 VW gti. One Subaru was   
      
   Wasn't it the Dodge Caravans that all burn oil and had transmission problems   
   early?  That problem seemed to be limited to that particular model.   
      
   I still think if there was a seal/gasket that would truely last forever, that   
   would solve the majority of engine problems as they age.  Leaks are a royal   
   pain and typically not a easy or cheap fix.   
      
   The vast majority of vehicles I have owned have been GMs.  I really wish they   
   would have not ditched all of Pontiac, as I realy liked the Firebird/TransAM,   
   had hoped they would bring back the GTO, etc.   
      
   I really like the new Dodge Challengers and Chargers if I was in the market   
   for a new car.     
      
   Of course, I really like the Monte Carlos (which GM stopped making).  I have   
   owned two of them.  1986 Monte Carlo SS, and my 2002 Monte Carlo LS (2011 as I   
   like to call it after it's overhaul).
