If you buy an Element or a Baja, you must really love the car and it's a "have to have it" for you. Same thing with Azteks. People who drive them... typically actually like them.

More power to Nissan for getting the new Maxima up there! If Honda can do it to the Element, Nissan can achieve it with their Maxima. Marketing geniuses I tell ya -=p

The answer here is that Maxima owners are fanatical about Maximas.

"Most loved by the people who own them" isn't the best mark of success in the market. All of 10 people like the Aztek, but it could be on the list if 9 of them say "it's my favorite vehicle ever!"

No Hummer http://forums.freshalloy.com/images/graemlins/shocked.gif Can you believe that the Excursion is actually up there and the Hummer is not? I really didn't think we liked Excursions. Who on this board likes Excursions?

Excursions are obscene. Ever seen one of those slaps in nature's face lifted? DAMNED scary sight, especially when you are on foot and it's coming towards you.

I was thinking the same thing. The H2 is way more popular and beloved than the excursion. Fvck you JDPower, Fvck you long and hard! http://forums.freshalloy.com/images/graemlins/mad.gif

Full size truck= Escalade EXT.
LOL.
Like they asked real people who really use trucks...
Should be in the "Wretched excess/bling-bling" catagory.

I guess you couldn't vote for the same vehicle in more than one catagory.

I guess people didn't know that Benz was with DC cause DC is below average, I woulda thought they woulda been instead of VW. VW's sales have sucked butt and I didn't know people liked cars whose windows fall out http://forums.freshalloy.com/images/graemlins/tongue.gif.
