Shopping for a new car?

THE MOST DEPENDABLE CARS ARE JAGUARS AND . . . BUICKS???

Yesterday, J.D. Power and Associates released its annual Vehicle Dependability Study . . . which ranks every car on the market in terms of reliability . . . and you might be surprised by the results.

--According to the study, the ten MOST DEPENDABLE cars are:

#10.) Cadillac and Honda (TIE)

#8.) Lincoln

#7.) Acura

#6.) Infiniti

#5.) Mercury

#4.) Toyota

#3.) Lexus

#1.) Jaguar and Buick (TIE)


(--Now, before you starting talking smack about Buicks, you should know that I drive a 1995 Park Avenue, and I've NEVER had a single major mechanical problem . . . even though it's now pushing 200,000 miles. No lie. They're good cars.)

--And the ten LEAST DEPENDABLE cars are:

#10.) Pontiac and Jeep (TIE)

#8.) Hummer

#7.) Scion

#6.) Saab

#5.) Mazda

#4.) Isuzu

#3.) Land Rover

#2.) Volkswagen

#1.) Suzuki (PR Newswire)

(--Check out the press release from J.D. Power and Associates, which includes the full rankings, here . . .)
